Automatic registration of signal handlers (Django 1.7+)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Signal handlers for the ``wagtailsearch`` core app and ``wagtailfrontendcache`` contrib app are automatically registered when using Django 1.7. Calls to ``register_signal_handlers`` from your ``urls.py`` can be removed.
Use AppConfig.ready to register signal handlers Also remove references to `admin.autodiscover()`, as this is called from the AdminConfig when `django.contrib.admin` is loaded. 2014-10-09 02:23:03 +02:00			`=========================`
