I am using django-registration app. and have following code in forms.py
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
from registration.forms import RegistrationFormUniqueEmail
from django import forms
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from accounts.models import UserProfile
from pprint import pprint
class UserRegistrationForm(RegistrationFormUniqueEmail):
#email = forms.EmailField(label = "Email")
fullname = forms.CharField(label = "Full name")
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ("fullname", "email", )
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(UserRegistrationForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
del self.fields['username']
def save(self, commit=True):
user = super(UserRegistrationForm, self).save(commit=False)
user.userprofile.full_name = self.cleaned_data["fullname"]
user.email = self.cleaned_data["email"]
if commit:
user.save()
return user
I inherited from Django-registraion app’s class RegistrationFormUniqueEmail so I when called save method at user = super(UserRegistrationForm, self).save(commit=False) it says, that save attribute doesnot exist. I actually wrote this code with inheritance from UserCreationForm .
I have just read the comment for SuperClass of RegistrationFormUniqueEmail that is :
"""
Form for registering a new user account.
Validates that the requested username is not already in use, and
requires the password to be entered twice to catch typos.
Subclasses should feel free to add any additional validation they
need, but should avoid defining a ``save()`` method -- the actual
saving of collected user data is delegated to the active
registration backend.
"""
These comments ask to not define another save method but I need to. So is there way that I can do define save method and call parent save method too to define additional fields? Following is the code of django-registration apps’s forms.py:
"""

I just want to know that how can I override save() method or else how can I create new additional fields?
I have found solution of my own posted problem:
I have removed that django-registration app’s RegistrationFormUniqueEmail, and instead I am inheriting from UserCreationForm and added the required method into my own UserRegistrationForm so I am able to override save method and able to do the things that I wanted to .
