django - Form stopped saving to database after TextField was changed to HTMLField -
i had working input form model, included textfield called 'opis'. instances of model saved database. however, wanted give users more options when writing -- , storing -- particular bit of text. installed tinymce, changed textfield htmlfield , discovered this, putting
<head> {{ form.media }} </head> at beginning of template enough input field rendered tinymce widget. is, kept old modelform, , displayed changed, thought nice , convenient. however, when user submits form, nothing happens -- seems form valid, database not updated.
in models.py:
from tinymce.models import htmlfield class kurs(models.model): [skipping...] opis = htmlfield() [skipping rest] in forms.py:
class kursform(modelform): class meta: model = kurs fields = "__all__" in views.py:
def createcourse(request): if request.method=='post': form = kursform(request.post) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return httpresponseredirect('/polls/usersite') else: form = kursform() return render(request, 'polls/createcourse.html', {"form" : form}) and in createcourse.html:
<head>{{ form.media }}</head> <form action="" method="post"> {% csrf_token %} {{ form }} <input type="submit" value="submit" /> </form> clicking 'submit' results in no observable effect. worked until changed textfield htmlfield. doing wrong?
edit: seems there similar issue raised tinymce, want report in case editing form in forms.py to
class kursform(modelform): opis = forms.charfield(widget=tinymce(attrs={'required': false, 'cols': 30, 'rows': 10})) class meta: model = kurs fields = "__all__" didn't help.
alright, turns out indeed issue tinymce. claudep kind enough me in this thread. sum up, have , doing job following:
-- subclassing widget:
class tinymcewidget(tinymce): def use_required_attribute(self, *args): return false -- having modified form follows (i guess might optional):
class kursform(modelform): opis = forms.charfield(widget=tinymcewidget(attrs={'required': false, 'cols': 30, 'rows': 10})) class meta: model = kurs fields = "__all__"
