djangocms-currentuser-field 0.4

Saves the current user with an Aldryn Form for DjangoCMS.

An extension to the Aldryn Forms plugin that adds a Current User form field type. If there is a valid logged-in user session (request.user), that user’s information will be saved along with the form submission.

When you build your form, you can select to save the user’s:

• User ID
• Username
• Email Address
• Full Name
