django_extensions/db/fields/__init__.py
30:MAX_UNIQUE_QUERY_ATTEMPTS = getattr(settings, 'EXTENSIONS_MAX_UNIQUE_QUERY_ATTEMPTS', 100)

The setting name is settings.EXTENSIONS_MAX_UNIQUE_QUERY_ATTEMPTS. Please try with that.

You probably have more then 100 conflicts for the test-org slug. (aka test-org-100 also exists)

Happy to except PR requests to add additional modes like a random 8 char postfix instead of just sequential numbers.

In the git version you can now configure MAX_UNIQUE_QUERY_ATTEMPTS (default = 100) either by passing kwargs to the field or settings EXTENSION_MAX_UNIQUE_QUERY_ATTEMPTS in settings.py.

(btw if somebody wants to write a PR for unifying the way we deal with configuration options in settings.py cause that’s kind of a mess right now 😃 )
