Django Tutorial #20 - Saving Users

[@SwahiliSpicE]

I just have to say congrats man, I used watch your channels when you had a few thousand subs and I learned a lot about html and css from you. Now I come back after a couple of years and boom! Your channel has exploded. That's amazing; not everyone can teach but you are certainly born for it!

[@NetNinja]

Thanks so much :)

[@auroshisray9140]

Hugely respect you for such precise tutorials

[@NetNinja]

Thanks so much 😊

Hey firstly I want to thank you Shaun for your incredible high-quality content, but what if I want to use my custom signup page with my custom fields, things like phone numbers, and other stuff like custom email domains that aren't available in the default authentication, how can I do that, please? I am pretty familiar with PHP so is it the same, like getting the inputs with its name and making a query, or is it something else in Django, thank you.

[@siddharthsingh8472]

For the people getting 404 still in the post request add signup/ in urls,py as well

[@anroiduser1222]

if you are getting the url error, after you successfully signed-up a new user. changed the return redirect code to return redirect('/articles/')

The current path, accounts/signup/accounts/signup/, didn't match any of these. i`m getting this error,can u help me on how to tackle this in my form,i followed all your steps...

[@embrekbuason8976]

In signup.html I put action="." instead of action="accounts/signup.html" which worked for me, "." means the directory it is already in. Hope that helps.

For anyone getting a HttpResponse object error, make sure to add an else statement if the form is invalid if form.is_valid(): form.save() # Log user in return redirect('articles:list') else: return render(request, 'accounts/signup.html', { 'form': form })

[@AxmedShiimax]

Thank you so much

[@elyasomarr]

Thanks a lot

[@KevinTempelx]

form.save() only works for me if I save it to a variable. Is that something new? I don't know where that variable will come in hand later. I was hoping to get clarification.. Thank you!

[@letoan285]

Hello shaun, could you please have a brief explanation the differences in django 2? I have some confuse about urls

[@dawitbezabih6247]

In case the redirect('articles:list') is not working for you Try redirect('list') I hope that works and check the documentation.

I typed csrf_token exactly u did.. But still getting that csrf token missing error

[@oleksandr6750]

[@johnnydamilatis8281]

I had some issues with some adblockers not letting the csrf token work properly. When i turned the blocker off it worked properly.

[@PastewnyGolem]

Reload the server + clear the cache in browser

So how do you get the application on the internet in the first place, like its not a static html website its a whole server

[@davidtolu2710]

how can we remove those guidelines that pop up on django signup html side, they should only be shown when there is an error

[@peymannaji]

How can we retrieve data from Request.POST when we post normal ( Fx: Comments ) data and not something related to Django's framework like user form ?

[@Kristmaz808]

u didnt tell us what should be in the urls.py file... where did /accounts/signup/ come from lol Update: found the answer in video #22 :)

[@dec23]

Hi Ninja and anyone in the comments, I'm interested in only asking users to sign up for 'our newsletter' and only ask for the users email and have that stored in the database. Is this sort of the same way I would accomplish that? Does Django have system in place of that instead of the UserCreateForm function?

[@argelpolicarpio6552]

create your own forms.py inside your app

[@pankajuprety9216]

thank you so much

[@ahmdzsakib8093]

I got this error, I check all the URL I used everything seems fine but whenever I submit the form get this error anyone please help me Page not found (404) Request Method: POST Request URL: 127.0.0.1:8000/accounts/signup/ Using the URLconf defined in pyshop.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order: admin/ products/ orders/ articles/ accounts/ signup [name='signup'] ^static/(?P.*)$ ^media/(?P.*)$ The current path, accounts/signup/, didn't match any of these.

[@lightknight876]

your videos are awesome Ninja. can your followers make requests? can we beg you to do a asp.net core c# project after this one? thanks mate!

[@NetNinja]

Ha, tthanks :). Yeah you can always make requests. I can't do all of tem but if enough people ask for something I generally try to do it. As for C# and ASP, I will be doing a series on this. But it won't be next. Most likely some time in the new year.

[@lightknight876]

make sure your last return is outside of the if/else clause

[@o-t3016]

For anyone who is getting an error this is how the views.py should be with django 3 from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login from django.shortcuts import render , redirect from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm from django.http import HttpResponse # Create your views here. def signup_view(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = UserCreationForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() # log the user in username = form.cleaned_data.get('username') messages.success(request, 'User has been created') return redirect('login') else: form = UserCreationForm() return render(request, 'accounts/signup.html', {'form':form})
