[Django]-Add user to group automatically after registration in Wagtail

Instead of using Django signals, Wagtail has hooks that simplify this for you. You can also send password reset email etc… after creating user using the same technique.

Just create a wagtail_hooks.py in your app:

from django.contrib.auth.models import Group
from wagtail.core import hooks
    
@hooks.register('after_create_user')
def add_user_to_group(request, user):
    if user:
       group, created = Group.objects.get_or_create(name='Group Name')
       user.groups.add(group)
