Question

I am integrating django_paypal with my django_registration setup for which I have created a custom backend. I can’t seem to find in the code where it sends the activation email. Is this located in the backend?

I want to wait and send the activation email until after they have completed a paypal checkout and I receive the IPN notification.

The RegistrationProfile.objects.create_inactive_user manager method has a send_email parameter, which defaults to True.

You just need to set send_email=False when you create a new user.

new_user = RegistrationProfile.objects.create_inactive_user(username, email,
                                                            password, site,
                                                            send_email=False)
