Project Files Incomplete

Just wondering why the project files you can download don't match the files Kenneth makes in the video. Would be nice if you can update these files to the correct ones.

For example: the "account" folder that is supposed to be in the "templates" folder is named "allauth" in the project files.

Thanks,

Brian

True - that would be perfect.

Did anyone get a confirmation email? I'm good thru 2:12, oauth worked, my GitHub username is now an admin User, but no confirmation email was received (no conf email mssg sent). Fun to see social auth done in Django. I notice in admin ACCOUNTS, there is no 'Email Confirmation' account, probably the problem. I think followed all instructions. Yes, complete project files would be nice.

P.S. problem is you must install django-allauth 0.27.0 like Kenneth suggests may be needed. I installed 0.30.0. Now I think things will work better.

P.S.S. I had to set my GitHub account email to public for this to work. Everything works now exactly has K.L. shows.

did you figure this out? I'd really appreciate your help. I'm also not getting an email message. I'm surprised at how incomplete this and the authentication tutorial are.

Daniel Wu, I had to use django-allauth 0.27.0 instead of the newest version which did not show the confirmation link in admin (never used this link, but you should use 0.27.0, could make difference since Kenneth designed this project around 0.27.0). I also had to set my GitHub account email to public, confused me, but then email conf worked. I also posted template code that I saw Kenneth write in the videos (but maybe he has updated the project files I think): https://teamtreehouse.com/community/my-source-code-for-3-templates

I got the confirmation email to work (using the test back email we used in user authentication course).
