jQuery templates use constructs like:

    {{if condition}} print something{{/if}}

This, of course, completely screws up Django templates,
because Django thinks {{ and }} mean something.

Wrap {% verbatim %} and {% endverbatim %} around those
blocks of jQuery templates and this will try its best

Then you can work with Forum and Topic models and just do update and delete operations on them. Once you set these up, the scripting tasks become much mor
