Function-based generic views have been deprecated

Question

DeprecationWarning: Function-based generic views have been deprecated; use class-based views instead.

I keep getting this warning, when I'm running my site. What does this mean and how can I fix it?

Answer 1

Django 1.3 introduced class-based views and also added a range of generic class-based views. Django also has documentation about migrating function-based views to class-based views.

There is not really much more to say about it: your project currently uses function-based views whereas class-based views are the new way of creating views.
