Re: post_save signal is not dispatched

Hi,

Weirdly, I've just been doing this. What do you have in your settings INSTALLED_APPS? 

One of them should be something like 'employer.apps.EmployerConfig' alternatively in your employer module's __init__.py file you need to say 

default_app_config = 'employer.apps.EmployerConfig'

            employer = Employer(user=user)
            employer.save()

        post_save.connect(post_save_user, User)  #####################  

As you can see I want to create an employer and link them with the new created user. 

Running the command 

./manager.py createsuperuser --username username --email user@user.com ***********

shows me that I'm wrong. There is no entry in the myapp_employer table. What did I missend?

* Django: 2.0.X 
* app is installed 

* python: 3.6
