Re: post_save signal to create the new user profile

Signals or no signals I think your profile model is wrong. By making it a subclass of User you're effectively getting all the fields of the User model. Write your profile model like this instead: class Employee(models.Model): user = models.ForeginKey(User) address = models.CharField(...)
