Customize User Profile Model - Django Blog #27

In this video we'll start to customize our User model to add more fields by creating a new Profile model and associating it with our User model.

It's hard to add things to the User model, instead we can extend it by creating a new model and giving it a OneToOne association with the User model.

That's what we'll do in this video to add a bio to our User Profile.

This is great just starting in django for about a week and wanted to overload a the basic authentication user model. this was the perfect speed for beginners as long as you have your files open in tabs in your IDE and your webpage already in browser.

Great video as usual. My question however I, what if I have multiple user groups and I want to provide specific fields in which each group can enter related information based on their roles in an organisation or setup

Thanks for making this video. Very clear explanation. I'm trying to make a simple user profile to add a URL for an avatar to implement later with a Vue component.

Greate tutorial, this works. However I think it we should create a separate app dedicated to users and put in a custom user model just to keep things a little entangled or unbundled for ease of scaling and updating.

That still doesn't answer the main question: How does a user create and edit a profile?
You've done all this through the admin page, but we didn't get to see how you set it up so the user does it himself.

[philippnazarenko]

How can I make using e-mail field instead of user field??

[letslearnui]

Great as always. I am wondering how we can add a date column in admin / profile page so we know as admin when that profile was created. Appreciate if anyone can solve this for me thanks

Sir, how to use Mail id or Mobile Number in place of Username for Authentication

[briangreenberg]

I found that I had to do the following in models.py for the migration to work properly : bio = models.TextField(null=True)

[mehmetali]

if i change our profile model's name as Profilex, i made all the changes, it didnt work, why ? Must be Profile ?

[piyushgupta]

class LoginViewSet(ViewSet):
def create(self, request):

try:
user = authenticate(request, username=request.POST.get('username'),
if user:
token, created =

return Response({'message':['welcome', request.POST.get('username')], 'your login token is':token.key}, 200)

return Response({'message':'invalid credentials'}, 401)
except Exception as e:
return Response({'data': '', 'message': str(e)}, 500)
