my user registration with modal form does not validate/save. It only just close immediately when you save and nothing happens.

this is the views.py

from django.template.loader import render_to_string
from django.http import JsonResponse
from authentication.forms import CustomUserCreationForm
from django.contrib import messages
def CreateUser(request):
    data = dict()
    if request.method == "POST":
        form = CustomUserCreationForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            form.save()
            data["form_is_valid"] = True
            username = form.cleaned_data.get('username')
            messages.success(request, f'Your account has been created! You are now able to log in')
            return redirect('home/manage-users.html')
        else:
            data["form_is_valid"] = False
    else:
        form = CustomUserCreationForm()
    
    context = {'form': form}
    data["html_form"] = render_to_string('partial_modal/create-user.html', context, request=request)
    return JsonResponse(data)

Any tips how can I work this my code? Thank you.

The save method takes an argument which is "commit" it is True by default that means the form data will be saved into the database. What I have experienced is that sometimes it does not work properly so, instead of calling the save method on form instance try the following code.

myUser = form.save(commit = False)
myUser.save()
