How to drop email field in django-registartion?

I am using the third party app django-registration as my django project's registration system. I create the registration_form.htlm:

 <form method="post">
    {% csrf_token %}
    <h1 class="h3 mb-3 fw-normal">Sign up</h1>

    <div class="form-floating">
      <input
        class="form-control"
        id="floatingInput"
        placeholder="name"
        name="username"
      />
      <label for="floatingInput">User</label>
    </div>
    <div class="form-floating">
      <input class="form-control" placeholder="Email" name="email" />
      <label for="floatingPassword">Email</label>
    </div>
    <div class="form-floating">
      <input
        type="password"
        class="form-control"
        id="floatingPassword"
        placeholder="Password"
        name="password1"
      />
      <label for="floatingPassword">Password</label>
    </div>
    <div class="form-floating">
      <input
        type="password"
        class="form-control"
        id="floatingPassword"
        placeholder="Password"
        name="password2"
      />
      <label for="floatingPassword">Password</label>
    </div>

    <div class="checkbox mb-3">
      <label>
        <input type="checkbox" value="remember-me" /> Remember me
      </label>
    </div>
    <button class="w-100 btn btn-lg btn-primary" type="submit">
      Sign Up
    </button>
  </form>

And as you can see above, I have to specify the email or the form doesn't work. So is there any skill that to make the email completion optional, which means if a user doesn't provide email, the form can still be submitted successfully.

To make the email field optional in your registration form, you can modify the Django registration form and views to handle this scenario.

You will need to create a custom registration form that inherits from the original form provided by django-registration. You can override the field's required attribute to make the email field optional.

class CustomRegistrationForm(RegistrationForm):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.fields['email'].required = False
