Codeigniter 4 registration to multiple table - codeigniter-4

Question

I have some questions that I do not know how to solve it. Currently I have 2 tables, users and user_profile. I have 2 fields in users_profile, membership and coins which will be added by a default value "yes/no" for membership and "0" for coins.
How do I add "created_by" column from the form username?
How do I add the value in the user_profile table when the user submit the registration form?
This is my code that will store the registration form fields in users table
public function register()
{
$data = [];
helper(['form']);
$validation = \Config\Services::validation();
// To add in is_unique
if($this->request->getMethod() == 'post'){
//validations
$rules = [
'username' => 'required|is_unique[users.username]',
'email' => 'required|valid_email|is_unique[users.email]',
'firstname' => 'required',
'lastname' => 'required',
'dob' => 'required',
'country' => 'required',
'contact' => 'required',
'password' => 'required'
];
$errors = [
'username' => [
'is_unique' => 'Username already exist!'
],
'email' => [
'is_unique' => 'Email already exist!'
]
];
if(!$this->validate($rules, $errors)){
$data['validation'] = $this->validator;
}else{
//store information into database
$model = new AccountModel();
$newData = [
'username' => $this->request->getVar('username'),
'email' => $this->request->getVar('email'),
'firstname' => $this->request->getVar('firstname'),
'lastname' => $this->request->getVar('lastname'),
'dob' => $this->request->getVar('dob'),
'country' => $this->request->getVar('country'),
'contact' => $this->request->getVar('contact'),
'password' => $this->request->getVar('password'),
'created_by' => $this->request->getVar('username')
];
$model->save($newData);
$user_id = $model->insertID();
$newAccount = $model->where('user_id',$user_id)->first();
$userProfileModel = new UserProfileModel();
$newProfile = $userProfileModel->save(['user_id' => $user_id, 'coins' => '0', 'membership' => 'no']);
}
}
echo view('templates/header', $data);
echo view('account/register');
echo view('templates/footer');
}
AccountModel
class AccountModel extends Model{
protected $table = 'users';
protected $allowedFields = [
'username',

protected function passwordHash(array $data){
if(isset($data['data']['password']))
$data['data']['password'] = password_hash($data['data']['password'], PASSWORD_DEFAULT);
return $data;

How do I add "created_by" column from the form username?
use insertID() ci4 models method aftaer save method executed. It will return the lastest primary key which been saved from the table you want. in this case from your account table
$model->save($newData);
$userId= $model->insertID();
How do I add the value in the user_profile table when the user submit the registration form?
you should have a foreign key in user_profile table that refering to users table primary key
++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++
+ users + + user_profile +
++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++
+-id[p.k] + +-id[p.k] +
+-username + +-users_id[f.k]+
+-email + +-coins +
+-email + +-membership +
get lastest user data by $userId, i assume your primary key is 'id' and than save to the user_profile
$newAccount = $model->where('id',$user_id')->first();
$userProfileModel = new UserProfileModel();
$newProfile = $userProfileModel->save(['user_id' => $userId])
