    <p><strong>Please note</strong>: this is an ancient question with ancient answers. Most of the linked apps are now unmaintained. These days, most people seem to use <a href="https://github.com/pennersr/django-allauth" rel="noreferrer">django-allauth</a> or <a href="https://github.com/omab/python-social-auth" rel="noreferrer">python-social-auth</a>. I'll leave the original question intact below for posterity's sake.</p> <hr> <p>There are at least half a dozen Django apps that provide OpenID authentication for Django:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://github.com/simonw/django-openid" rel="noreferrer">django-openid</a></li> <li><a href="https://launchpad.net/django-openid-auth" rel="noreferrer">django-openid-auth</a></li> <li>another <a href="http://code.google.com/p/django-openid-auth/" rel="noreferrer">django-openid-auth</a>, which seems to be dead</li> <li><a href="http://bitbucket.org/benoitc/django-authopenid/wiki/Home" rel="noreferrer">django-authopenid</a></li> <li><a href="http://github.com/uswaretech/Django-Socialauth" rel="noreferrer">django-socialauth</a> (which also provides authentication with Twitter and Facebook accounts)</li> <li><a href="http://github.com/flashingpumpkin/django-socialregistration" rel="noreferrer">django-socialregistration</a> (has Facebook and Twitter authentication, too)</li> <li><a href="http://code.google.com/p/django-openid-consumer/" rel="noreferrer">django-openid-consumer</a>, a fork of Simon Willison's original django-openid. Seems more suited for simple blog comments than a full fledged registration workflow</li> <li><a href="http://github.com/omab/django-social-auth" rel="noreferrer">django-social-auth</a></li> </ul> <p>I played around with a couple of them. Simon Willison's <a href="http://github.com/simonw/django-openid" rel="noreferrer">django-openid</a> made a good impression, but as he is at the forefront of trendsetting in Djangoland, I sometimes have difficulties wrapping my head around his trends (e.g. the whole dynamic urlpatterns system in django-openid). What's more, I couldn't get login to work with Google.</p> <p><a href="http://bitbucket.org/benoitc/django-authopenid/wiki/Home" rel="noreferrer">django-authopenid</a> made a good impression, and it seems to have good integration with <a href="http://bitbucket.org/ubernostrum/django-registration/wiki/Home" rel="noreferrer">django-registration</a>. <a href="http://github.com/uswaretech/Django-Socialauth" rel="noreferrer">django-socialauth</a> and <a href="http://github.com/flashingpumpkin/django-socialregistration" rel="noreferrer">django-socialregistration</a> have support for Twitter and Facebook, which is definitely a plus. Who knows if and when Facebook will start to be an OpenID provider...? socialauth seems to have <a href="http://www.elfsternberg.com/2009/11/24/django-socialauth-component-now-with-some-elfin-goodness/" rel="noreferrer">its share of problems</a>, though.</p> <p>So, what is the best OpenID app out there? Please share any positive (and negative) experience. Thanks!</p>

    1. CO[django-social-auth](https://github.com/omab/django-social-auth#readme) by Matías Aguirre is another one, and it looks pretty active as a project as of today. Apart from OpenId it supports all major providers (FB, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.), supports user data population and multiple social accounts association to single users.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
