At this point, it is *literally* installing a third party app, adding that app to INSTALLED_APPS , and adding an AUTH_USER_MODEL setting to your configuration file. Changing the default isn’t a viable option, because changing the default user would break *every* Django project that assumes the current default User model is the one in existence - which is to say, every Django project generated to date that hasn’t deployed a custom User model. We’ve also had an open ticket #20824: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/20824 This would add an EmailUser as part of Django’s core. However, there are some techncial issues associated with this: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/7feYlp9HqKs/Z_vv8O43vEUJ We haven’t worked out how to resolve these issues; if there are any suggestions, the idea has broad support from the core team.
