Question

I have created my UserProfile model as instructed in the docs but how can I pass the values to be saved from my view. This is how my view looks like:

if request.method == 'POST':
    form = RegistrationForm(request.POST)
    if form.is_valid():
        now = timezone.now()
        user = User.objects.create(
            username     = form.cleaned_data['username'],
            first_name   = form.cleaned_data['username'],
            last_name    = form.cleaned_data['username'],
            email        = form.cleaned_data['email'],
            is_staff     = False,
            is_active    = False,
            is_superuser = False,
            last_login   = now,
            date_joined  = now
        )

    user.set_password(form.cleaned_data['password'])
    user.save()

Since, you are using post_save() signal on User model to create UserProfile object, you can access newly created profile user after calling user.save()

profile = user.get_profile()
profile.verified = False
profile.ip_address = get_client_ip()
profile.save()

I assume, you have UserProfile model in your models.py.

## Create a forms.py file inside your app and define an UserProfileForm similar to this

from django.forms import ModelForm

## using relative import because it's good practice, and I don't know what's name of your app
from .models import UserProfile

class UserProfileForm(ModelForm)
    class Meta:
        model = UserProfile
        exclude = ("user",)


## In views.py

if request.method == 'POST':
    form = RegistrationForm(request.POST)
    profile_form = UserProfileForm(request.POST)
    if form.is_valid() and profile_form.is_valid():
        now = timezone.now()
        user = User.objects.create(
            username     = form.cleaned_data['username'],
            first_name   = form.cleaned_data['username'],
            last_name    = form.cleaned_data['username'],
            email        = form.cleaned_data['email'],
            is_staff     = False,
            is_active    = False,
            is_superuser = False,
            last_login   = now,
            date_joined  = now
        )

    user.set_password(form.cleaned_data['password'])
    user.save()
    profile = profile_form.save(commit=False)
    profile.user = user
    profile.save()

However, I don’t understand why are you not using your RegistrationForm even after initializing and validating it.
