Show fields for adding password to custom user model

I have a custom user model. I want the admin to create new accounts from the admin panel. Registering a class doesn't help.

admin.site.register(CustomUser)

*This has the effect of avoiding the possibility of double-entering the password

So I try this solution:

from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin

admin.site.register(CustomUser, UserAdmin)

*In the above option, I have the option to enter the password twice (whean i create user), but the other fields from my custom user model are disappearing.

class CustomUser(AbstractUser):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True, null=True)
    surname = models.CharField(max_length=50, blank=True, null=True)
    account_type = models.ForeignKey(Locationd, on_delete=models.CASCADE, blank=True, null=True

How to add the ability to create accounts in the admin panel, giving a password that can be sent to the new user and editing all fields from the custome user class.

You can use your own Django form

from .models import User
from .forms import SignUpForm
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from django.contrib import admin

class ManagingUsers(UserAdmin):

    add_form = SignUpForm

    list_display = ['__str__']
    search_fields = ['email']
    readonly_fields = ['date_joined', 'last_login']
    ordering = ('id',)

    filter_horizontal = []
    list_filter = []


    add_fieldsets = (

        ('Add a new user', {
            'classes':('wide',),
            'fields': ('first_name', 'last_name' ,'email', 'birthday', 'password1', 'password2', 'avatar', 'cover_pic', 'validated', 'is_admin', 'is_staff', 'is_active', 'is_superuser'),
            }),
        )
    
    fieldsets = (

        (None, {
            'fields': ('first_name', 'last_name', 'bio' ,'email', 'birthday', 'avatar', 'cover_pic', 'is_admin',  'is_staff', 'is_active', 'is_superuser'),
            }),

        )
admin.site.register(User, ManagingUsers)

This code from an old project so change the fields names to whatever you want

You need to unregister the user model then add your custom user

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(CustomUser, UserAdmin or YourCustomAdminSettings)
