Vipin Sir: " Admin/Mentors must approve or create accounts for students So depending on the role they should be able to create basic account for the mentee and then mentee can login and fill other details "

I noticed we are using a custom model for users. Add a field called disabled in the model. User login would check if the user is NOT disabled too. New registrants account will be disabled automatically and only upon admin approval be accepted to login to the site. I can work on this. The only complication is to modify the db to add the field. That can be done manually or using south both of which i'm not sure about.

In either case, there's a 'New User?' button in the login page that doesn't work (it's linked to the login page itself).

I think it should be removed at least (if not fixed). People might tend to think the whole website is buggy if a stray link is lying around.
