i got some specific problem i have a view that used to save the quiz form like this
def NewQuiz(request, course_id,module_id):
user = request.user
module = get_object_or_404(Module, id=module_id)
if request.method == 'POST':
form = NewQuizForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
a = Quizzes()
quiz = NewQuizForm.save(commit=False)
quiz.module=module
quiz.save()
module.save()
return redirect('new-question', course_id=course_id, quiz_id=quiz_id)
#course=models.Course.objects.get(id=request.POST.get('course_id'))
else:
form = NewQuizForm()
context = {
'form': form,
}
return render(request, 'quiz/newquiz.html', context)
and the error is "save() missing 1 required positional argument: ‘self’ "
Please provide the full traceback of the error.

Your instance of the form you are working with is named form (the first line of this excerpt).
That is what you want to save at the last line of this portion:
quiz = form.save(commit=False)
See Creating forms from models | Django documentation | Django for more details.
Tank you so much sir
may can i ask something else?
Absolutely! This is a “conversational” location, not an “ask one question, get one answer” type of site.
after i saved the quiz it redirect like this
return redirect('new-question', course_id=course_id, module_id=module_id, quiz_id=quiz_id)
but i got the error

[26/Dec/2021 23:19:56] “POST /quiz/1/modules/1/quiz/newquiz HTTP/1.1” 500 80658
what can i do to fix this?
What is that error message telling you?
Or, to be more specific, what part of that line is it complaining about?
the message is
NameError at /quiz/1/modules/1/quiz/newquiz
name ‘quiz_id’ is not defined
the line is what i wrote in the last replay and the code is here
ef NewQuiz(request, course_id,module_id):
user = request.user
module = get_object_or_404(Module, id=module_id)
if request.method == 'POST':
form = NewQuizForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
a = Quizzes()
quiz = form.save(commit=False)
quiz.module=module
quiz.save()
#quiz.id=quiz_id
module.save()
return redirect('new-question', course_id=course_id, module_id=module_id, quiz_id=quiz_id)
#course=models.Course.objects.get(id=request.POST.get('course_id'))
else:
form = NewQuizForm()
context = {
'form': form,
}
return render(request, 'quiz/newquiz.html', context)
def NewQuestion(request, course_id,module_id, quiz_id):
user = request.user
quiz = get_object_or_404(Quizzes, id=quiz_id)
if request.method == 'POST':
form = NewQuestionForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
question_text = form.cleaned_data.get('question_text')
points = form.cleaned_data.get('points')
answer_text = request.POST.getlist('answer_text')
is_correct = request.POST.getlist('is_correct')
question = Question.objects.create(question_text=question_text, points=points)
for a, c in zip(answer_text, is_correct):
answer = Answer.objects.create(answer_text=a, is_correct=c, user=user)
question.answers.add(answer)
question.save()
quiz.questions.add(question)
quiz.save()
return redirect('new-question', course_id=course_id, module_id=module_id, quiz_id=quiz.id)
else:
form = NewQuestionForm()
context = {
'form': form,
}
return render(request, 'quiz/newquestion.html', context)
Ok, this was a more targeted question.
You posted this line:
return redirect('new-question', course_id=course_id, module_id=module_id, quiz_id=quiz_id)
which is the line throwing the error.
What part of this line do you think the error is referring to?
And, the second question is:
What do you think the cause of this error would be?
i think quiz_id is not defined in NewQuiz function but i was think that when i save the quiz in quiz.save() method the quiz_id was also crated for that quiz…but my thought is not worked so when i think onther way of getting the quiz_id of the crating quiz ```
quiz.id=quiz_id
Correct. You have no variable defined named quiz_id. What you are trying to reference here is the id attribute of the quiz object, which is quiz.id, not quiz_id. Yes, there are a small number of places where you can use either one almost interchangably (within the ORM), but this is not one of them.
so what do you think to fix the problem
i mean when i tray like this
quiz_id = quiz.id
another probleme is come
NoReverseMatch at /quiz/1/modules/1/quiz/newquiz
Reverse for ‘new-question’ not found. ‘new-question’ is not a valid view function or pattern name.
Ok, so we’ve solved the quiz.id issue, now it’s a different problem.
Again, what do you think the cause of this error would be?
i think still the problem is that because in the Traceback i saw the previous line of code which where the error was coming

Yes, you are correct, this is the right error.
What do you think might cause this error?
