i have a form that is not showing and here is the code:
forms.py:
from django import forms
from .models import Todo
from django.forms import ModelForm
class TodoForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Todo
fields = ('username','title','details', 'date')
labels = {
'nuserame': '',
'title': '',
'details':'',
'date':'',
}
widgets = {
'username': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':"form-control", 'placeholder':'Enter Username'}),
'title': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':"form-control", 'placeholder':'Enter Title'}),
'details': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':"form-control", 'placeholder':'Enter Details'}),
'date': forms.DateTimeField(),
}
in view.py:
from django.shortcuts import render,redirect
from django.contrib import messages
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate
## import todo form and models
from .forms import TodoForm
from .models import Todo
###############################################
def index(request):
item_list = Todo.objects.order_by("-date")
if request.method == "POST":
form = TodoForm(request.POST)
#form.cleaned_data['username'] = request.user
if form.is_valid():
# save user of current user
form.save()
return redirect('todo')
form = TodoForm()
page = {
"forms" : form,
"list" : item_list,
"title" : "TODO LIST",
}
return render(request,'todo/index.html',page)
and index.html:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8">
{% for i in list %}
<div class="card">
<center><b>{{i.username}}</b></center>
<hr/>
<center><b>{{i.title}}</b></center>
<hr/>
{{i.date}}
<hr/>
{{i.details}}
<br />
<br />
<form action="/del/{{i.id}}" method="POST" style=" padding-right: 4%; padding-bottom: 3%;">
{% csrf_token %}
<button value="remove" type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" style="float: right;"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-trash"></span> remove</button>
</form>
</div>
{% endfor%}
</div>
<div class="col-md-1"> </div>
<div class="col-md-3" >
<div class="submit_form">
<form method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
{{TodoForm}}
<center>
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-default" value="submit" />
</center>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The first form is showing (existing data from database. The second form which is adding data to database it is showing only the buttons and not the fields. after inspecting the page i see that it says its hidden, how is that?
