Error setting up Django registration

Question

So, I'm trying to set up registration and I keep getting the error

Unhandled exception in thread started by

RuntimeError: Model class django.contrib.sites.models.Site doesn't declare an explicit app_label and isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS.

after running

pip install django-registration-redux==1.1

and my INSTALLED_APPS are

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'collection', # this is the app we added
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django.contrib.humanize',
    'registration',
]

Not being super familiar with python tracebacks I'm not sure which files to modify to fix this.

Thanx.

from docs,

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'registration',
    # ...other installed applications...
)

django.contrib.sites seems to be omitted in your INSTALLED_APPS.
