I have created a custom User registration form, from the UserCreationForm. When I try to register, it does register successfully, and I can see a newly created user with the username and its email. But there's no password for that user.
In the admin, the password field for that user is No password set.. Please correct me where I am wrong. Thank you.
forms.py:
from album.forms import MyRegistrationForm
from django import forms
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
class MyRegistrationForm(UserCreationForm):
email = forms.EmailField(required=True)
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ('username', 'email', 'password1', 'password2',)
def save(self, commit=True):
user = super(UserCreationForm, self).save(commit=False)
user.email = self.cleaned_data['email']
if commit:
user.save()
return user
views.py:
def register_user(request):
if request.method == "POST":
form = MyRegistrationForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/accounts/register_success/')
else:
form = MyRegistrationForm()
return render(request, 'register.html', {'form':form})
When calling save on the superclass using super, use the form MyRegistrationForm, not its superclass UserCreationForm.
user = super(MyRegistrationForm, self).save(commit=False)
