Hello Tom, Django comes inbuilt with user authentication functions which is almost more than enough in most of the requirements.In your case, you just need to import User model in models.py and in views.py under "if" statement just return HttpResponse. You dont need to write anything else. For email and password you don't need custom models and views. Amitesh

I'd like to make a user registration form that requires only two fields: "Email" and "Password." No second password field, just one. So far, My `views.py` looks like this: def register(request, template="register.html", redirect='/'): if request.method=="POST": form= RegisterForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() email= form.cleaned_data.get("email") raw_password= form.cleaned_data.get("password1") user= authenticate(email=email, password=raw_password) login(request, user) return redirect('/') else: form= RegisterForm() return render(request, template, {"form": form}) `forms.py` has this class in it: class RegisterForm(UserCreationForm): email= forms.EmailField(label=_("Email"), max_length=254) class Meta: model= User fields= ("email",) `register.html` looks simple: {% extends "base.html" %} {% block main %} <h2>Register</h2> <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form.as_p }} <button type="submit">Register</button> </form> {% endblock main %} In `urls.py`, I have this line in `urlpatterns`: `url("^register/$", views.register, name="register"),`. But my registration forms looks like this, with an Email field and two Password fields: http://i.imgur.com/b359A5Z.png. And if I fill out all three fields and hit "Register," I get this error: `UNIQUE constraint failed: auth_user.username`. Any idea why I'm getting this error? And how can I make sure my form only has two fields: Email and Password? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
