[Django]-Django ImproperlyConfigured: Application labels aren't unique

✅

The application name and the application label are different things. Directly quoting from the documentation:

The AppConfig.name is the:

Full Python path to the application

and AppConfig.label is the

Short name for the application

Furthermore it is also said about the label that

This attribute allows relabeling an application when two applications
have conflicting labels

Hence you want to only change the label and not change the name:

from django.apps import AppConfig


class AuthConfig(AppConfig):
    name = "core.auth" # I assume it was this according to your shown INSTALLED_APPS, if not it should be what it originally was
    label = "core_auth"
    verbose_name = "Core Auth"

Also I believe instead of default_app_config = 'core.auth.AuthConfig' it should be default_app_config = 'core.auth.apps.AuthConfig' since you declare AuthConfig in the apps.py file.
