Social Authentication and ContentTypes #43
Description
Hi,
If you follow the doc about socialauth you will end up with a non working setup, at least when enabling google OAuth2
Traceback (most recent call last):

"INSTALLED_APPS." % (module, name)
RuntimeError: Model class django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType doesn't declare an explicit app_label and isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS.
The solution looks obvious: add contenttypes to INSTALLED_APPS. Which you could do in two forms:
- You see the error, you are an experienced Django developer so, after instantiating Site() you add:
INSTALLED_APPS += ('django.contrib.contenttypes',)
And you will be greeted with...
table_factory() failed for <class 'django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType'>.
table_factory() failed for <class 'django.contrib.contenttypes.models.ContentType'>.
Only then will you think "hey, it's not a plugin, but maybe the right place to put it is Site.get_installed_apps, like: yield 'django.contrib.contenttypes'.
Now it works.
So, that page might explain that contenttypes is needed, and how to add it?
