Answer 1

See the documentation for the save() method

if request.method == 'POST':
    userf = UsersModelForm(request.POST)
    new_user = userf.save(commit=False)

    username = userf.cleaned_data['username']
    password = userf.cleaned_data['password']
    passwordrepeat = userf.cleaned_data['passwordrepeat']
    email = userf.cleaned_data['email']

    new_user.password = new1
    new_user.passwordrepeat = new2

    new_user.save()
