RE: i want to save is_staff value true in db but not save in database

You're adding an attribute (is_staff) to the form and then saving the form, but no method is doing anything with that attribute.

When you save a model form, it will return the instance of the model.  You can then proceed to change that model, and save it again.

 

        if form.is_valid():

           instance = form.save(commit=False)  # get the model instance from the filled-out form without saving it to the database

           instance.is_staff = True  # modify the instance by changing the is_staff attribute to True

     instance.save()  # save the instance of the model to the database

     form.save_m2m()  # for handling any many-to-many relationships that are not saved when commit=False

 

Please review the documentation:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/topics/forms/modelforms/

Here is Code:

 

from django.contrib.auth import login, authenticate

from django.shortcuts import render, redirect

from blog.forms import SignUpForm 

 

def signup(request):

    if request.method == 'POST':

        form = SignUpForm(request.POST)

        if form.is_valid():

        form.is_staff = 1

        form.save()

            # username = form.cleaned_data.get('username')

            # raw_password = form.cleaned_data.get('password1')

            # user = authenticate(username=username, password=raw_password)

            # login(request, user)

            # return redirect('home')

    else:

        form = SignUpForm()

    return render(request, 'register.html', {'form': form})
