Django POST method is not receiving all input fields from HTML

please I would like to ask for help. I'm creating a web-based application and I'm having a hard time when I try to get the data from the HTML form and receive it through the POST method in Django.
It's pulling data only from one field and I really appreciate your help in figuring out why it's not pulling information from the other fields only from the location field. Thank you very much!

Django/Python = views.py
def save_request(request):
#print(request.POST)
if request.method == 'POST':
context = {}
location = request.POST.get('location', None)
support = request.POST.get('support', None)
band_PMA = request.POST.get('bandPMA', None)
band_PMO = request.POST.get('bandPMO', None)
ippf = request.POST.get('ippf', None)
print(location, support, band_PMA, band_PMO, ippf)
return render(request, 'home/create-request.html', context=context)

That html defines many different forms. The first form has the location input element, the second form has the support input element, and so on.
Only one form can be submitted at a time. By default it is the first form on the page, so that's why you only see the location element.
I think you need to rewrite the html to have only one form.

That is because you have many tags.
You need to keep only one, the one wrapping your include, so do that :
<form action="{% url 'save_request' %}" id="checklistForm" name="checklistForm" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<section id="step-1" class="form-step">
<div class="mt-3">
{% include 'home/1_resource-request.html' %}
</div>
</section>
</form>
and that :
HTML = home/1_resource-request.html

Form errors are displayed at the wrong place

I am working on my Blog website and in the registration template I should insert the username and email and password so I can register but if i have an error it should give me what is it BUT every error I have it goes to the bottom of the template, not under the field I want.
P.S.: I am using Django framework!!
template.html:
<h1>Register</h1>
<form action="" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
<div class="form-floating mb-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="floatingInput" placeholder="name#example.com" name="username">
<label for="floatingInput">Username</label>
</div>
<div class="form-floating mb-3">
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="floatingInput" placeholder="name#example.com" name="email">
<label for="floatingInput">Email</label>
</div>
<div class="form-floating">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="floatingPassword" placeholder="Password" name="password1">
<label for="floatingPassword">Password</label>
</div>
<div class="form-floating">
<input type="password" class="form-control mt-3" id="floatingPassword" placeholder="Password" name="password2">
<label for="floatingPassword">Re-Type Password</label>
</div>
{% if forms.errors %}
{% for field in forms %}
{% for error in field.errors %}
<h5 style="color: red;">{{ error|escape }}</h5>
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for error in forms.non_field_errors %}
<h5 style="color: red;">{{ error|escape }}</h5>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %} <br>
<button type="submit">Register</button>
</form>
</div>
if anything needs to be added other then the template please tell me in the comment!!
Thanks in advance!! <3

You render the field errors at the bottom as well, hence the error. In order to render the errors of a specific field, you should iterate over the errors of that field, so:
<div class="form-floating mb-3">
{% for error in forms.username.errors %}
<h5 style="color: red;">{{ error|escape }}</h5>
{% endfor %}
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="floatingInput" placeholder="name#example.com" name="username">
<label for="floatingInput">Username</label>
</div>
and this for all fields of course.

How do I get images to show on my django app?

On my Django app, I am trying to make an eBay type of site that lets people post listings with pictures and bid on them. Everything works except posting an image. The image won't show and I do not know if it's the HTML or the python. If you have any questions let me know.
Html code:
{% extends "auctions/layout.html" %}
{% block body %}
<div class="container">
<h2>Create listing</h2>
</div>
<div class="container">
<form action="{% url 'submit' %}" method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleFormControlInput1">Title</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlInput1" placeholder="Title of the lisiting..." name="title" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleFormControlTextarea1">Description</label>
<textarea class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="5" placeholder="Description..." name="description" required></textarea>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleFormControlSelect1">Category</label>
<select class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlSelect1" name="category" required>
<option>Fashion</option>
<option>Tools</option>
<option>Toys</option>
<option>Electronics</option>
<option>Home accessories</option>
<option>Books</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleFormControlInput1">Initial Bid</label>
<input type="number" class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlInput1" placeholder="Starting bid..." name="price" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleFormControlInput1">Image link (optional)</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlInput1" placeholder="https://blah-blah.jpg..." name="link">
</div>
<button class="btn btn-outline-info" type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
{% endblock %}
This is the python function for making listings:
def create(request):
try:
w = Watchlist.objects.filter(user=request.user.username)
wcount=len(w)
except:
wcount=None
return render(request,"auctions/create.html",{
"wcount":wcount
})

Django-messages works only when form|crispy is used but not in other cases

I am creating a login page using django but it does not show any messages when I enter wrong passwords or email addresses. I've also checked other messages but it didn't help.
login.html
<div class="right">
<h2>Login</h2>
{% if messages %}
{% for message in messages %}
<div class="alert alert-{{ message.tags }}">
{{ message }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
<form method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<fieldset class="form-group">
<div class="field">
<div class="label">Email or Username</div>
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="field">
<div class="label">Password</div>
<input type="password" name="password" id="password" class="form-control">
</div>
<button class="login" type="submit">LOGIN</button>
</fieldset>
</form>
<div class="sign_up">
<small>Don’t have an account yet?</small>
<a class="signup" href="{% url 'register' %}">SIGN UP</a>
</div>
</div>
urls.py has this path for the login page(I have imported all the necessary classes):
path('login/', auth_views.LoginView.as_view(template_name='users/login.html') , name='login'),
But the messages are shown when I use this form|crispy in login.html
<div class="content-section">
<form method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<fieldset class="form-group">
<legend class="border-bottom mb-4">Login</legend>
{{ form|crispy }}
</fieldset>
<div class="form-group">
<button class="btn btn-outline-info" type="submit">Sign In</button>
</div>
</form>
<div class="border-top pt-3">
<small class="muted-text">
Want a new Account? <a class="ml-1" href="{% url 'register' %}">Sign Up</a>
</small>
</div>
</div>

Here you used LoginView using form it will return it will show you error because of {{ form|crispy }} template tag render form and fields along with field.errors and field.non_field_error.
That's Why you can get an error message if you remove message block in your code it will show you an error there is no connection with form and message in login view
If you want to render you HTML form with CSS you need to explicitly define errors showing block like this
<div class="right">
<h2>Login</h2>
{% if form.errors %}
{% for field in form %}
{% for error in field.errors %}
<div class="alert alert-danger">
<strong>{{ error|escape }}</strong>
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
{% for error in form.non_field_errors %}
<div class="alert alert-danger">
<strong>{{ error|escape }}</strong>
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
<form method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
<fieldset class="form-group">
<div class="field">
<div class="label">Email or Username</div>
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" class="form-control">
</div>
<div class="field">
<div class="label">Password</div>
<input type="password" name="password" id="password" class="form-control">
</div>
<button class="login" type="submit">LOGIN</button>
</fieldset>
</form>
<div class="sign_up">
<small>Don’t have an account yet?</small>
<a class="signup" href="{% url 'register' %}">SIGN UP</a>
</div>
</div>
Here not meaning to use the message framework of Django. Form it self return error in his errors attribute of a form
Hope you satisfied with this answer
