[Solved]-Allow blank password fields on User model when updating profile in Django

UserCreationForm is intended to be used for creation. It’s better to create a new ModelForm than using this one.

class UserUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm):
    # Feel free to add the password validation field as on UserCreationForm
    password = forms.CharField(required=False, widget=forms.PasswordInput)

    class Meta:
        model = User
        # Add all the fields you want a user to change
        fields = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'username', 'email', 'password') 

    def save(self, commit=True):
        user = super(UserUpdateForm, self).save(commit=False)
        password = self.cleaned_data["password"]
        if password:
            user.set_password(password)
        if commit:
            user.save()
        return user

Or if you want to subclass the UserCreationForm which I doesn’t recommend. You can do this :

class UserForm(UserCreationForm):
    password1 = forms.CharField(label=_("Password"), required=False
                            widget=forms.PasswordInput)
    password2 = forms.CharField(label=_("Password confirmation"),
                            widget=forms.PasswordInput, required=False)
    class Meta:
        model = User
        fields = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'username', 'email')

    def save(self, commit=True):
        user = super(UserUpdateForm, self).save(commit=False)
        password = self.cleaned_data["password"]
        if password:
            user.set_password(password)
        if commit:
            user.save()
        return user

I recommend you to use a simple

class UserUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm):       
    class Meta:
        model = User
        # Add all the fields you want a user to change
        fields = ('first_name', 'last_name', 'username', 'email') 

For passwords changing there’s another dedicated form that your can use which is django.contrib.auth.forms.SetPasswordForm since changing the password is a different process from updating user informations
