I edited `__init__.py` registration page with the following and was able to get it to work. \n\n```\nsql_check_reg = \"SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = (%s)\"\nx = c.execute(sql_check_reg, (username,))\n```\n\nand:\n\n```\nsql_insert_reg = \"INSERT INTO users (username, password, email) VALUES (%s, %s, %s)\"\nc.execute(sql_insert_reg, (username, password, email))\n```\n\nMaybe you could verify that this is in fact a good method and not susceptible to sql injection?\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/spizeck","@type":"Person","name":"spizeck"},"datePublished":"2016-03-17T22:38:18.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/1/PythonProgramming.net-Website/issues/1"}
