I'm looking to add a User to a group only if a field of this User is specified as 'True' once the User is created. Every User that is created would have a 'UserProfile' associated with it. Would this be the correct way to implement such a thing?

models.py:

def add_group(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):if created:sender = UserProfileif sender.is_in_group:from django.contrib.auth.models import Groupg = Group.objects.get(name='Some Group')g.user_set.add(sender)post_save.connect(add_group, sender=UserProfile)

Thanks in advance!

Another option is using a post_save signal

from django.db.models.signals import post_save
from django.contrib.auth.models import User, Groupdef add_user_to_public_group(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):"""Post-create user signal that adds the user to everyone group."""try:if created:instance.groups.add(Group.objects.get(pk=settings.PUBLIC_GROUP_ID))except Group.DoesNotExist:passpost_save.connect(add_user_to_public_group, sender=User)

Only trouble you will have is if you use a fixture ... (hence the DoesNotExists .. )
