error:Unknown field(s) (password1, password2) specified for User
I have no idea why it doesn't work as documentation says
Documentation:
class UserCreationForm¶
A ModelForm for creating a new user.
It has three fields: username (from the user model), password1, and password2.
It verifies that password1 and password2 match, validates the password using validate_password(),
and sets the user’s password using set_password().
My forms.py
class CreateUserForm(UserCreationForm):
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ['username', 'email', 'password1', 'password2']
my views.py
class CreateUserView(CreateView):
model = User
form = CreateUserForm
template_name = 'registration/register.html'
fields = ['username', 'email', 'password1', 'password2 ]
class UserLoginView(LoginView):
next_page = "home.html"
']
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
path('register/', CreateUserView.as_view(), name='register'),
]
password1 and password2 are not fields of the User. You should remove these:
class CreateUserForm(UserCreationForm):
class Meta(UserCreationForm.Meta):
model = User
fields = ['username', 'email']but with this, it makes not much sense to inherit the form anyway.
Furthermore you specify the form class with form_class [Django-doc], not form, so:
class CreateUserView(CreateView):
model = User
form_class = CreateUserForm
template_name = 'registration/register.html'
