Good afternoon all,
One of my form does not seem to save when submitted. I cannot see why, in particular as I have a similar form working just fine using the same code.
For some reason it work just fine using the admin panel.
My assumption is that I am missing something that tells the form it needs to be saved. But cannot find what.
Any ideas?

I detect 2 fixes
On your url, the parameter product_id might need the type of data it will going to receive
path('product/add_review/<int:product_id>', views.add_review,name="add_review"),
And in your view, you are sending an instance, and no data for a new rating.
In your view:
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404
#login_required
def add_review(request, product_id):
product = get_object_or_404(Product, pk=product_id)
form = ReviewAdd(request.POST or None)
if form.is_valid():
new_rating = form.save(commit=False)
new_rating.product = product
new_rating.user = request.user
new_rating.save()
return redirect('product')
return render(request, 'main/add_review.html',{'form':form})

I was getting that same error while click the like button, But the error was solved..
again after creating comment view and its other staff I'm getting that error again...When I click the comment button then the error appears..I'm very new to Django,,, help me please..

Your comment button is just a link, is it normal ? I think, you want to submit your form when you click on?
<div>
<h4>
Comments:
</h4>
{% for comment in comments %}
<div>
{{ user }} <br>
<h5>{{ comment }}</h5>
</div>
{% endfor %}
<!-- <h6>Add your comment:</h6> -->
<form action="{% url 'comment' %}" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
{{form|crispy}} <br>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-sm btn-info">Comment</button>
</form>
</div>
And i think, your problem occured because you dispolay this template from comment view without set blog in context data.
def blog_view(request, pk):
blog = Blog.objects.get(id=pk)
form = CommentForm()
comments = Comment.objects.filter(blog=blog)
context = {"blog": blog, "comments": comments, "form":form}
return render(request, 'blog_app/blog_page.html', context)
def comment(request):
form = CommentForm()
if request.method == 'POST':
form = CommentForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return redirect("blog_page", pk=form.instance.blog.pk)
return HttpResponse(status_code=400) # error case
else:
return HttpResponse(status_code=501) # try to GET page
Better solution is to pass blog pk in the url for being able to render page with error:
path("blog/<int:pk>/comment/", views.comment, name="comment")
<form action="{% url 'comment' blog.pk %}" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
{{form|crispy}} <br>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-sm btn-info">Comment</button>
</form>
def comment(request, pk):
blog = get_object_or_404(Blog, pk=pk)
form = CommentForm()
if request.method == 'POST':
form = CommentForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return redirect("blog_page", pk=blog.pk)
return render(request, "...", {"blog": blog, "form": form})
I make a site with multiple users, making posts with images and ability to add/remove friends.
So it's easy to make two different pages for post list and creating a new one. But of course it looks better when you can read posts and make new at the same place.
As I understand (learn django for less than a month), I can't connect 2 views to the same url, so the most logical way I see is to join 2 views in one, I also tried to play with template inheriting to render post form by including template, but actually it doesn't work.
Below you can see my views, Post model, and templates. Thank you for attention.
views.py:
from braces.views import SelectRelatedMixin
from . import models
from django.views import generic
from django.contrib.auth.mixins import LoginRequiredMixin
class PostList(SelectRelatedMixin, generic.ListView):
model = models.Post
select_related = ('user',)
class CreatePost(LoginRequiredMixin, SelectRelatedMixin, generic.CreateView):
fields = ('post_message', 'post_image')
model = models.Post
select_related = ('user',)
def form_valid(self, form):
self.object = form.save(commit = False)
self.object.user = self.request.user
self.object.save()
return super().form_valid(form)
models.py:
import misaka
class Post(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete = models.CASCADE, related_name = 'posts')
posted_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now = True)
post_message = models.TextField()
message_html = models.TextField(editable = False)
post_image = models.ImageField(upload_to = 'postpics', blank = True)
def __str__(self):
return self.post_message
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.message_html = misaka.html(self.post_message)
super().save(*args, **kwargs)
def get_absolute_url(self):
return reverse('posts:all')
class Meta:
ordering = ['-posted_at']
unique_together = ['user', 'post_message']
urls.py:
app_name = 'posts'
urlpatterns = [
path('', views.PostList.as_view(), name = 'all'),
path('new/', views.CreatePost.as_view(), name = 'create'),
]
post_form.html (template, that allows to make a new post, which will be seen in post_list.html):
{% extends 'posts/post_base.html'%}
{% block post_content %}
<div class="post-form">
<form action="{% url 'posts:create' %}" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{% csrf_token %}
<p>{{ form.post_message }}</p>
<p>{{ form.post_image }}</p>
<input id='post-submit' type="submit" value="Post">
</form>
</div>
{% endblock %}
post_list.html:
{% extends 'posts/post_base.html'%}
{% block post_content %}
<div class="post-container">
{% for post in post_list %}
<div class="current-post-container">
{% include 'posts/_post.html'%}
</div>
{% endfor %}
</div>
{% endblock %}
_post.html(pages, which render by Misaka):
<div class="post-info">
<h5 id='post-owner' >{{post.user.first_name}} {{post.user.last_name}}</h5>
<h6>{{ post.posted_at }}</h6>
<p>{{ post.message_html|safe }}</p>
<div>
<img class='post-image' src="/media/{{ post.post_image }}" alt="">
<div>
{% if user.is_authenticated and post.user == user and not hide_delete %}
<a href="{% url 'posts:delete' pk=post.pk %}" title = 'delete'>Delete</a>
{% endif %}
</div>
</div>
</div>
post_base.html:
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block content%}
{% block prepost %}{% endblock %}
{% block post_content %}{% endblock %}
{% block post_post %}{% endblock %}
{% endblock %}
EDIT:
Task was solved. I added two template_name strings to both of my views, so now they look like:
CreatePost in views.py:
class CreatePost(LoginRequiredMixin, SelectRelatedMixin, generic.CreateView):
fields = ('post_message', 'post_image')
model = models.Post
select_related = ('user',)
template_name = 'posts/post_list.html'
template_name = 'posts/post_form.html'
def form_valid(self, form):
self.object = form.save(commit = False)
self.object.user = self.request.user
self.object.save()
return super().form_valid(form)
PostList in views.py:
class PostList(SelectRelatedMixin, generic.ListView):
model = models.Post
select_related = ('user',)
template_name = 'posts/post_list.html'
template_name = 'posts/post_form.html'
You can put the post_create_form on the same page as post_list_view there is no need to make a separate view for post creation but You need to make ones for editing and deleting.
You can give all of these views the same HTML page with different URLs.
Using template_name = 'example/example.html' ,in Class_Based_Views.
I hope I understand your problem if not clarify more why you can't join two views in one.
def posts(request):
posts = Post.objects.all()
form = PostForm(request.POST or None, request.FILES or None)
if request.method == "POST":
if form.is_valid():
...
context={
'posts' : page_obj,
'create_or_update_post_form' : form,
}
return render(request, 'post/posts.html',context)
Do you struggle to do this in Class-based-view?
You can do easily with django class based views.
Create views as
from django.views.generic import ListView
from django.views.generic.edit import CreateView
class ModelCreate(CreateView):
model = ModelName
fields = ['field1', 'field2']
template_name = 'same_page.html'
success_url = reverse_lazy('list_view')
class ModelList(CreateView, ListView):
model = ModelName
fields = ['field1', 'field2']
paginate_by = 5
template_name = 'same_page.html'
def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
context = super().get_context_data(*args, **kwargs)
context['form'] = self.get_form()
return context
# If form post redirect to ModelCreate View
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
return ModelCreate.as_view()(request)
app/urls.py
from django.urls import path
from app import views
path('list', views.ModelList.as_view(), name='list_view'),
path('add', views.ModelCreate.as_view(), name='add_view'),
Finally in templates/same_page.html
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-5">
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{% csrf_token %}
{{form.as_p}}
<button type="submit" value="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm float-right">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-5">
{% if object_list %}
{% for object in object_list %}
<p>{{object.field1}}</p>
<p>{{object.field2}}</p>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
</div>
</div>
Hope, this helps.
The goal here is to add a delete button beneath every post, and once it is clicked, the corresponding row will be deleted from the table in the database.
views.py
from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
from .forms import CreatePostForm
from django.contrib import messages
from .models import CreatePost
def create_post(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = CreatePostForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
post = form.save(commit = False)
post.save()
messages.success(request, f'The post has been created.')
return redirect('home_page')
else:
form = CreatePostForm()
return render(request, 'post/create_post.html', {'form': form})
def view_post(request):
context = CreatePost.objects.order_by('-dateCreated')
return render(request, 'post/view_post.html', {'context': context})
So far, there is one page, create_post.html, that allows users to create a post. There is a second page, view_post.html, that allows users to see all posts with the most recently added first. I want to put a delete button beneath every post in view_post.html.
view_post.html
{% extends "home_page/base.html" %}
{% load crispy_forms_tags %}
{% block content %}
<h1>Volunteer Opportunities</h1>
{% for x in context %}
<h4>
{{ x.task }}
<small class="text-muted">Date Required: {{ x.dateRequired }}</small>
</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>{{ x.description }}</p>
<p>Date Posted: {{ x.dateCreated }}</p>
</blockquote>
<hr>
{% endfor %}
{% endblock content %}
I'm not sure if this is necessary, but below are models.py and the project urls.py file.
models.py
from django.db import models
class CreatePost(models.Model):
dateCreated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add = True)
task = models.CharField(max_length = 1000)
description = models.TextField()
dateRequired = models.DateField(null = True)
urls.py
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from home_page.views import home
from post.views import create_post, view_post
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('', home, name = 'home_page'),
path('create_post/', create_post, name = "create_post"),
path('view_post/', view_post, name = "view_post"),
]
Try this.
In your url
path('delete/<int:id>', view_post.destroy),
In Your html inside for
Delete
views.py
def destroy(request, id):
post = CreatePost.objects.get(id=id)
post.delete()
return redirect("/yourhtml")
I am relatively new to django and i'm trying to implement some modelforms.
My page consists of two views, a Politics section and a Sports section, each one with the same form for making comments (my comment model is named Comentario). It has a field for the content and a field for the section the comment belongs to. Both views are basically the same so I'm going to showcase just the politics one:
from django.contrib import messages
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.views.generic import CreateView
from usuarios.models import Usuario
from .forms import CrearComentario
from .models import Comentario
usuarios = Usuario.objects.all()
comentarios = Comentario.objects.all()
pag = ''
def politics(request):
if request.user.is_authenticated:
if request.method == 'POST':
form = CrearComentario(request.POST, instance=request.user)
if form.is_valid():
messages.success(request, 'Publicado!')
pag = 'politics'
form.save()
form = CrearComentario()
else:
form = CrearComentario(request.POST,instance=request.user)
else:
messages.warning(request, 'Comentario no válido')
form = CrearComentario(request.POST)
return render(request, 'main/politics.html', {'usuarios': usuarios,
'comentarios': comentarios,
'form': form})
In case you're wondering, 'pag' is a control variable that is checked by my signals.py file to update the 'pagina' field
I had trouble with the submit buttons in my custom modelsforms, the form displays correctly, and when I write something in the form and submit it, it displays a success message but the comment doesn't appear in the comment section and it doesn't appear in the django shell either.
politics.html
{% extends 'main/base.html' %}
{% load static %}
{% load crispy_forms_tags %}
<!-- Here would be the content-->
{% block comentarios %}
<h3>Comentarios</h3>
<ul class="a">
{% for comment in comentarios %}
{% if comment.pagina == 'politics' %}
<li>
<span>{{ comment.contenido }}</span>
<br>
<small>{{ comment.usuario }} , {{ comment.fecha }}</small>
<hr>
<br>
</li>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="http://localhost:8000/main/politics/">
{% csrf_token %}
<fieldset class="form-group">
<legend>Dejanos tu opinion</legend>
{{ form|crispy }}
</fieldset>
<div class="form-group">
<button class="btn btn-outline-info" type="submit">OK</button>
</div>
</form>
{% else %}
<legend>Inicia sesión para poner comentarios</legend>
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
My forms.py looks like this:
from django import forms
from .models import Comentario
class CrearComentario(forms.ModelForm):
contenido = forms.CharField(max_length = 250, required=False, widget=forms.Textarea)
pagina = forms.CharField(max_length = 250, required=False, widget=forms.HiddenInput())
class Meta:
model = Comentario
fields = ['contenido', 'pagina']
The field that determines to which section the comment belongs to ('pagina') is hidden because it's meant to be set by my signals.py file:
from django.db.models.signals import pre_save
from django.dispatch import receiver
from .models import Comentario
from .views import pag
from .forms import CrearComentario
#receiver(pre_save, sender=Comentario)
def fijar_pagina(sender, instance, **kwargs)
if pag:
instance.pagina = pag
pag = ''
instance.save(update_fields['pagina'])
I'm not getting any error message, and everything behaves like it should except for the fact that comments aren't being saved
I tried too a commit==False save instead of the signals but it was just as ineffective:
def politics(request):
if request.user.is_authenticated:
if request.method == 'POST':
form = CrearComentario(request.POST, instance=request.user)
if form.is_valid():
messages.success(request, 'Publicado!')
pag = 'politics'
comentario = form.save(commit=False)
comentario.pagina = 'sonsol'
comentario.save()
form = CrearComentario()
else:
form = CrearComentario(request.POST,instance=request.user)
else:
messages.warning(request, 'Comentario no válido)
form = CrearComentario(request.POST)
return render(request, 'main/politics.html', {'usuarios': usuarios,
'comentarios': comentarios,
'form': form})
usuarios and comentarios have both been defined at the module (file) level. As such they will not update for the lifetime of the process.
You should move both of these into the view body so that the query is run on every request
usuarios = Usuario.objects.all()
comentarios = Comentario.objects.all()
return render(request, 'main/politics.html', {'usuarios': usuarios,
'comentarios': comentarios,
'form': form})
I've seen similar types of problems on here but I still haven't been able to work out my problem. When I save PhotographerProfileForm in my view, the form is rendered correctly but after clicking update/submit nothing is actually saved.
No errors are shown either.
What I have now are the fields are prepopulated and I would like the ability to save over these in the database, but nothing happens and at the moment you can only update it from the admin panel.
models.py
from __future__ import unicode_literals
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.db import models
# Create your models here.
class PhotographerProfile(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User)
location = models.CharField(max_length=200)
bio = models.TextField(max_length=500)
def __str__(self):
return self.user.username
User.profile = property(lambda u: PhotographerProfile.objects.get_or_create(user=u)[0])
from django.db.models.signals import post_save
from django.dispatch import receiver
#receiver(post_save, sender=User)
def create_profile(sender,instance,created,**kwargs):
if created:
profile, new = PhotographerProfile.objects.get_or_create(user=instance)
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^profile/$', 'photoprofile.views.photographer_profile', name = 'photographer_profile'),
url(r'^profile/portfolio/$', 'photoprofile.views.photographer_portfolio', name='photographer_portfolio'),
]
views.py
#login_required
def photographer_profile(request):
photographerProfile = PhotographerProfile.objects.get(user=request.user)
form = PhotographerProfileForm(initial={'bio':photographerProfile.bio, 'location':photographerProfile.location})#This means you can prepoulate it
return render_to_response('photographerprofile.html',{'form':form}, RequestContext(request))
if request.method == 'POST':
form = PhotographerProfileForm(request.POST, instance = request.user.profile,)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('/accounts/profile')
else:
user = request.user
profile = user.profile
form = PhotographerProfileForm()
return render(request, 'photographerprofile.html', {'form':form})
def photographer_portfolio(request):
photographerProfile = PhotographerProfile.objects.get(user=request.user)
return render_to_response('photographerportfolio.html', {'photographerProfile':photographerProfile}, RequestContext(request))
forms.py
class PhotographerProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = PhotographerProfile
exclude = ('user',)
photographerprofile.html
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load crispy_forms_tags %}
{% block content %}
<h2> Profile</h2>
{% for field in form %}
{{ field.error}}
{% endfor %}
<form action='/accounts/profile/' method='post'>
{% csrf_token %}
{{form|crispy}}
<input type='submit' value='Update'/>
<p>Click <a href='/accounts/profile/portfolio/'>here</a> to view portfolio. </p>
</form>
{% endblock %}
You return in the third line of your view, before the form has been processed. Remove that line.
