I want to create username and password when I press on submit button of registration form. Where full name of user is entered by the user. And then username and password should be sent to the user.
Can anyone suggest how to do?
You can find the documentation on creating a user at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/auth/default/#creating-users and the documentation on sending an email at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/email/ .
It's basically just a matter of creating a form, writing a view to render it, and if the form is valid, create the user using that data and send the email off.

I am trying to register the user by sending an OTP to their mail. Consider the following usual:
the user posts a request for registration with an email, password. (email mapped to the username of Django).
Django creates the user and the user gets the OTP for verification. If the user verifies, an 'is_verified' field will be set to true.
Now, If the user doesn't verify himself with the OTP, I can't get around the following issues. Please suggest a workaround.
---> Any other user can now not use the same email for registration, as email already exists in the database.
I want the user to be updated in the database only after the user has successfully verified the otp.

A great thing about Django is that it comes with a User model already. You just have to apply it to your site.
Check out the user documentation Here

I only use Linked-In as means to authenticate. When the user gives permission in Linked-In, he get's send to my own form so I can gather extra information. But it seems Allauth only lets me add fields to the default form using:
ACCOUNT_SIGNUP_FORM_CLASS = 'myapp.forms.MySignUpForm'
But the email field is always visible (and filled in with the email from Linked-In). Is it true that I have no way of dropping this field? I don't want the user to be able to change his email into something else than his Linked-In email.
Basically, the goal is to have valid username/password pair for each registered user.
I think the proper way to do that is to create custom form for social signup.The default workflow for social signup is:
User clicks "Sign in with PROVIDER_NAME";
User gives access to my app on provider's site;
Site redirects him to my app where he should fill additional fields like username etc. and complete registration.
And I need to ask user for passwords too at the last step. Form should validate that passwords and save it to user.
Any ideas? Have no idea how can it be implemented with custom form or adapter.
The purpose of allauth, is to avoid the user to create a new username/password for your site.
However, you can configure a form to add that information.
Set up the form you want to show to the user.
ACCOUNT_SIGNUP_FORM_CLASS = 'project.forms.MyUserForm'
I'm using django.contrib.auth.views.login to log in users. When login is failed, the user and password fields get posted back to the form.
What's the proper way to clean those?
Pass render_value=False when you create your password field's PasswordInput widget.
class YourAuthenticationForm(AuthenticationForm):
password = forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput(render_value=False))
