I have implemented a custom user setup for django 2. However I can't seem to find out source of this error that occurs anytime I attempt to register.

AttributeError at /register/



'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute '_meta'

When I get this error, the password is passed without a hash and not saved to the db, while the other values pass through fine.

In registration, you are trying to authenticate using keyword argument email but authenticate does not have any kwargs email, it takes username and password(Unless you override it in custom backend). So try like this(Just like your login_user view):

authenticate(request, username=email, password=password)

See in documentation for more details.

Also you password will not be saved in hash format, because you are directly saving it to Database using save method without using set_password. You need to update the save method in Registration form(Just like your UserAdminCreationForm)

 def save(self, commit=True):

    # Save the provided password in hashed format

    user = super(UserAdminCreationForm, self).save(commit=False)

    user.set_password(self.cleaned_data["password1"])

    if commit:

        user.save()

    return user
