Indexing a OneToOne User field only takes its username attribute

[neeti25]

I have made two models Student and Teacher by extending Django's User Model in OneToOne fields student and teacher respectively. When i register my Student and Teacher models to algolia, it only takes the username attribute of User in student(or teacher). I am not able to access other fields of User model like first_name, last_name etc. in algolia. How can i access these fields?

Hi @neeti25, thank you for reporting this! I wonder if it's not the same issue we have with ManyToMany fields in #202.

Let me investigate this, I'll keep you updated here of my progress!

[neeti25]

Sure.

@neeti25: We just documented a way to index ManyToMany fields in 0f70028, can you check the documented approach and let me know if it works for your usecase? 🙂

Closing as 0f70028 introduces a solution and @neeti25 didn't answer the previous comment, suggesting the issue is resolved.
