copied!<p>How can I populate the following tables with some default / initial data, every-time new user is created ? I know about this <a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/initial-data/" rel="nofollow">https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/initial-data/</a>, but this works only when I create models. Here I want to insert some default entries when new user is created. </p> <p>Additionally, when I create a new user how can I add him to a given group with a static group id automatically ?</p> <p>models.py</p> <pre><code>from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import User class Category(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=50) user = models.ForeignKey(User) class Feed(models.Model): url = models.URLField() name = models.CharField(max_length=50) created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) description = models.TextField(blank=True) category = models.ForeignKey(Category) user = models.ForeignKey(User) </code></pre> <p>views.py</p> <pre><code>def signup(request): if request.method == 'POST': form = UserCreationForm1(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return HttpResponseRedirect("/accounts/login") else: form = UserCreationForm1() return render(request, "registration/signup.html", { 'form': form, }) </code></pre> <p>forms.py</p> <pre><code>class UserCreationForm1(UserCreationForm): email = forms.EmailField(required=True) class Meta: model = User fields = ('username', 'email') </code></pre> <p>Many thanks!</p>
