Not compatible in Django 4.2

[Dsujan]

• djangocms_slick_slider version:1.0.7
• Django version: 4.2
• Python version:3.10
• Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS

Description

Hi @oesah,

I am not sure if you are maintaining this package. I required a slider/carousel in one of my Django CMS projects and found about djangocms-slick-slider from Google.

Upon configuring the project I found out that this package isn't compatible with Django version > 4.0+. The module causing this error ugettext_lazy has been dropped from >Django 4.0. You can find the discussion over here: https://github.com/oesah/djangocms-slick-slider

Do you intend to maintain this repo or perform a fix?

What I Did

1. Installed djangocms_slick_slider
2. Added djangocms_slick_slider.apps.DjangocmsSlickSliderConfig in INSTALLED_APPS
3. python mange.py makemigrations && python manage.py migrate && python mange.py runserver

@Dsujan Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I won't have time to fix it anytime soon, but you can send me a PR if you want to fix it. Should be easy to do, just check for the version of django when we import this and change it to the new import if django version is > 3.
