nicknames : Shortcuts to often-visited database rows¶
The nicknames plugin adds a virtual field my_nickname to a model of
your application, letting users give their individual nickname to individual
rows of that model. On their dashboard they will then get a welcome
message that lists all nicknamed database rows.
Giving a nickname is a pragmatic way for quickly creating a shortcut.
