# python manage.py shell_plus
>>> user = ClUser.objects.get(username="user name")    # or (email="user email")
>>> user.delete() # ??? Don't seem to work at all ???

Change username

Hint: only accept to change the username if the request is sent from the user's email address.

docker-compose exec django bash
# python manage.py shell_plus
>>> user = ClUser.objects.get(username="new_username") # check if 'new_username' already exists
>>> user = ClUser.objects.get(username="old_username")    # or (email="user email"), good to check if the person who contacted us owns the account
>>> user.username = 'new_username'
