Description

The tutorial doesn't mention the changes that have to be made to settings.py and urls.py in order to neable the admin interface. I was able to get sorted out by the fine folks at #django, but this should probably be at the beginning of section 2 of the tutorial.

Hi, thanks for the report. You are probably using the wrong version of the tutorial for your version of Django. Prior to Django 1.6, the admin was not enabled by default in the startproject template, and the Django 1.5 version of the tutorial part 2 does include instructions for enabling the admin. In Django 1.6+, the admin is enabled by default, and so this part of the tutorial was changed.

Please check your installed version of Django, and use the version selector in the lower right corner of the documentation to ensure that you are using the right version of the tutorial for your version of Django. Thanks!
