how can I get rid of users being directed to the “Thanks you
for your comment” page after commenting in Django site? I want users to be
redirected to the same page they commented. I’m using Django
comments.
I’ve tried adding:
<input type=”hidden” name=”next” value=”"{% url
django.contrib.comments.views.comments.comment_done %}" />
But it’s not working. Below is codes in my comment/form.html
{% load comments %}
{% get_comment_count for sol as comment_count %}
{% get_comment_list for sol as comment_list %}
{% get_comment_form for sol as form %}
{% if user.is_authenticated %}
<form action="{% comment_form_target %}" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{% if next %}<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{% url
django.contrib.comments.views.comments.comment_done %}" />{% endif %}
{% for field in form %}
{% if field.is_hidden %}
{{ field }}
{% else %}
{% if field.name != "name" and field.name != "email"
and field.name != "url" %}
{% if field.errors %}{{ field.errors }}{% endif %}
{{ field }}
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
<input class="submit-post" name="post" type="submit" value="Comment" />
</form>
{% else %}
I'm sorry, but you must be <a href="javascript:alert('send to
login page')">logged in</a> to submit comments.
{% endif %}
First let's review your code:
<input type=”hidden” name=”next” value=”"{% url
django.contrib.comments.views.comments.comment_done %}" />
Two double quotes: value=”"{% url
The url is comment_done: so this will redirect to the "Thank you for your comment page", which you want to avoid
Use url names instead of module name: {% url comments-comment-done %} rather than {% url django.contrib.comments.views.comments.comment_done %}
Instead, you can redirect the comment poster to the absolute url of the object he commented:
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{{ form.instance.content_object.get_absolute_url }}" />
This assume that your model has the standard get_absolute_url() method defined.
Or even, you can redirect the user to the very same page he's on:
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{{ request.path }}" />
Or the previous page he visited:
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{{ request.META.HTTP_REFERER }}" />

There is a view in the Django project (a paginated blog) that is responsible for how likes work. It has one drawback: when a user likes a post, it is redirected to the main page of the site. How can I fix this so that the user would remain on the page where they liked.
views.py
class AddLikeView(View):
def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
blog_post_id = int(request.POST.get('blog_post_id'))
user_id = int(request.POST.get('user_id'))
url_from = request.POST.get('url_from')
user_inst = User.objects.get(id=user_id)
blog_post_inst = News.objects.get(id=blog_post_id)
try:
blog_like_inst = BlogLikes.objects.get(blog_post=blog_post_inst, liked_by=user_inst)
except Exception as e:
blog_like = BlogLikes(blog_post=blog_post_inst,
liked_by=user_inst,
like=True)
blog_like.save()
return redirect(url_from)
template.py
<form action="{% if not is_liked_bool %}{% url 'add' %}{% else %}{% url 'remove' %}{% endif %}" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
<input type="hidden" name="blog_post_id" value="{{ blog_post_id }}">
<input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="{% if user.is_authenticated %}{{ request.user.id }}{% else %}None{% endif %}">
<input type="hidden" name="url_from" value="{{ request.path }}">
{% if is_liked_bool %}
<input type="hidden" name="blog_likes_id" value="{{ blog_likes_id }}">
{% endif %}
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">
{% if not is_liked_bool %}
<i class="fi-xnluxl-heart">♥</i>
{% else %}
<i class="fi-xnluxl-heart-solid">♥</i>
{% endif %}
<span class="likes-qty">{{ likes_counter }}</span>
</button>
I think you should check the url_from field first. Just print it and if it's wrong, you should change the {{request.path}} field in your template.
You can try this:
{{ request.get_full_path }}
And also if I remember correctly, you can access the path with request.path in your view and no need to send path via template.
When i click on the submit button i am getting the 404 error, i want to submit to the "new_search"
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% block content %}
<form action="{ % url 'new_search' %}" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
<input type="text" name="search" value="search" placeholder="search">
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>
{% endblock content %}
page
There is a typo in your code, replace:
{ % url 'new_search' %}
with
{% url 'new_search' %}
I am receiving an error message when I go to one of my pages in my Django project, as it is saying that the End-block tag is invalid (asks whether I remembered to register or load). The error looks like this:
My code for this template - (login.html) - is below:
{% extends "learning_logs/base.html" %}
{% block content %}
{% if form.errors %}
<p>Your username and password didn't match. Please try again.'</p>
{% endif %}
<form method="post" action="{% url 'users:login' %}">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.as_p }}
<button name="sumbit">log in</button>
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{% extends 'learning_logs/index.html' %}" />
</form>
{% endblock content %}
I am very confused, and I am wondering whether anyone knows what the problem is?
Thanks
Milo
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{% extends 'learning_logs/index.html' %}" />
Above line contains {% extends .... %}. To prevent being interpreted as a extends tag, use templatetag tag:
<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{% templatetag openblock %} extends 'learning_logs/index.html' {% templatetag closeblock %}" />
use {% endblock %} instead o f {% endblock content %}
for me it was wrongly auto-formatted html file. Check auto-formatting for html files.
I'm trying allauth for the first time and having difficulty signing up for the first time. I am using the Facebook support and I connect to Facebook successfully, logging in and get to /accounts/social/signup:
where my Facebook name and email address are pre-filled, but the button doesn't work, quite possibly because the form action is empty. I checked the allauth package template, and it seems designed this way. I'm not sure what's going on, but it's not working for me. Please help!

Action was left out in code and has now been changed on github, although apparently not in the pip package directory, thus I installed the error.
I am trying to get the POST values of an .html page that has included pages via {% include %} in Django. However, it returns only the POST from the initial html page.
My inner html that is included has the snippet of code:
div id="edit_parameters">Edit Parameters</div>
<div data-id="{{job.slug}}" id="{{job.slug}}" class="collapse">
<form class = "form-inline" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{% for parameter in job.get_object.parameters %}
<p>
<input type="text" class="input-small" name="{{parameter}}" value="" id ="{{parameter}}-input" placeholder="{{parameter}}">
</p>
{% endfor %}
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary run-job">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>
{% else %}
<div>
No editable parameters for this job.
</div>
{% endif %}
And my outer HTML file has a snippet:
<ul id="available-jobs">
{% if jobs_same_io_type and jobs_diff_io_type %}<h3> Current Step </h3>
{% elif jobs_same_io_type %} <h3> Next Step </h3> {% endif %}
{% for job in jobs_same_io_type %}
{% include "includes/job_li.html" with add=1 %}
{% endfor %}
{% if jobs_diff_io_type %} <h3> Next Step </h3> {% endif %}
{% for job in jobs_diff_io_type %}
{% include "includes/job_li.html" with add=1 %}
{% endfor %}
{% if not jobs_same_io_type and not jobs_diff_io_type %}
<li class="full-height">There are no more available jobs.</li>
{% endif %}
</ul>
<fieldset class="submit">
{% csrf_token %}
<input type="hidden" name="job_to_run" value="" id="job-to-run" />
<input type="hidden" name="workflow_jobs" value="" id="ordered-jobs" />
<input type="hidden" name="job_to_edit" value="" id="job-to-edit" />
<input type="hidden" name="job_to_add" value="" id="job-to-add" />
<input type="hidden" name="job_to_remove" value="" id="job-to-remove" />
<input type="submit" name="done" value="I'm done, start the jobs" id="jobs-ready" />
</fieldset>
The everything that shows in post is in the inputs of the second snippet. But the parameters I want for the first snippet are not included when I use request.POST for all of the POST values.
Any help would be greatly appreciated in explaining why I am not getting the values from the included page and finding a possible solution. Thanks!
In HTML, only the fields in the form element that contain the submit button are included in the POST. the fields in your second file don't seem to be in any form at all, so they will never be posted.
