Setting unique = True to ForeignKey has the same effect as using OneToOneField
I recently switched to Django 1.8.2 from 1.7, but I ran into small problems, for example in one of my models:
class Author(models.Model):
author = models.ForeignKey(UserProfile, blank=False, primary_key=True)
timestamp = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
But when I start the server, I am faced with this following warning:
WARNINGS:
exam.Author.author: (fields.W342) Setting unique=True on a ForeignKey has the same effect as using a OneToOneField.
HINT: ForeignKey(unique=True) is usually better served by a OneToOneField.
What should I do?

As Daniel said , you are probably better off using OneToOneField
.
A good explanation why this can be found in this question .
