You're using a custom user model, but have not set AUTH_USER_MODEL.

Thank you for your reply. I removes all the migrations and dropped the database. Now when I try to make migrations i get the following error in my terminal.

Thanks and regards,

Saloni

Error:

accounts.User.user_ptr: (fields.E301) Field defines a relation with the model 'auth.User', which has been swapped out.

        HINT: Update the relation to point at 'settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL'.

I suggest you read and understand this entire section:
