Problem with a custom user model with a custom `USERNAME_FIELD`

[John2013]

I have custom user model with USERNAME_FIELD = 'email'

module requires User.username field which doesn't exist

please adapt the module for the custom user name field

i just stumbled on this issue as well. after some sourcecode digging i found the settings of this plugin. the relevant setting is HIJACK_REGISTER_ADMIN = False

after that change the plugin does not try to register a own usermodel with a username field. but you have to mixin HijackUserAdminMixin into your custom usermodel.

but thats documented in the readme. maybe we just have to read a little bit better? :D
