You didn’t describe the problem you encounter, so it’s not easy to provide any help.

Also, the issue is related to saving things to database, so the most important parts are the model and the form that is supposed to do the saving (through form.save()), but you provided none of the model nor the form implementation.

Code Of my FOrms

class Mylisting_form(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Listing
        fields = ['area', 'location', 'price', 'image', 'title', 'listing_type']
        widgets = {
            'area': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control'}),
            'location': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control'}),
            'price': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control'}),
            'title': forms.TextInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control'}),
            'listing_type': forms.Select(attrs={'class': 'form-control'}),
        }
        
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        # Disable area and location fields by default
        self.fields['area'].widget.attrs['disabled'] = True
        self.fields['location'].widget.attrs['disabled'] = True
    
    def clean(self):
        cleaned_data = super().clean()
        listing_type = cleaned_data.get('listing_type')

        if listing_type in ['Apartments', 'Traveling', 'Car']:
            self.fields['area'].widget.attrs['disabled'] = False
            self.fields['location'].widget.attrs['disabled'] = False
        else:
            self.fields['area'].widget.attrs['disabled'] = True
            self.fields['location'].widget.attrs['disabled'] = True

        return cleaned_data

Code Of My Models

class Listing(models.Model):
    TYPE_CHOICES = [
        ('Car', 'Car'),
        ('Food and Life', 'Food and Life'),
        ('Travelling', 'Travelling'),
        ('Appartements', 'Appartements'),
    ]
    
    area = models.CharField(max_length=80)
    location = models.CharField(max_length=80)
    price = models.IntegerField()
    image = models.ImageField(upload_to='shop/images', default="")
    title = models.CharField(max_length=170, default="")
    listing_type = models.CharField(max_length=20, choices=TYPE_CHOICES)

That looks pretty good, except area and location fields on the model that should probably have a blank=True parameter.

What is the problem you encounter?

it Disable Area And Location Field For All Listing Type

6

Your javascript is incorrect:

Area and location fields are enabled only for the appartements category which is not a valid choice. Correct value is Appartements (with a capital letter)

7

Also, the test done in clean method is inconsistent with your javascript, and tested values does not correspond to valid choices.

However, disabling widgets in the clean method is useless, as widgets are not used at validation time
