hello thank you for your visiting I'm a new learner of Django I would like to know how to style form using django-bootstrap-v5 i try this and does not work
i have this form.py
pathesForm = inlineformset_factory(
Book,
quotation,
fields=('name','time',),
can_delete=False,extra=4,max_num=4,
widgets={'name': forms.TextInput(attrs={
'placeholder': 'name of book',
})
}
)
i use django-bootstrap-v5 and in file html
this form is not working with me
<form role="form" class="form-horizontal" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ formset.management_form }}
{% for form in formset %}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
{% bootstrap_field form.name %}
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
{% bootstrap_field form.time %}
</div>
</div>
{% if form.maybemissing %}
{% bootstrap_field form.maybemissing %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
<button type="submit">Save</button>
</form>
but this is working with me (i can save the form)
{% bootstrap_formset_errors formset %}
<form role="form" class="form-horizontal" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{% bootstrap_formset formset %}
<button type="submit">Save</button>
</form>
this is my view.py
def hello(request,id):
book=Book.objects.get(id=id)
if request.method == 'POST':
form= pathesForm(request.POST,request.FILES,instance=book)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
form = pathesForm(instance=book )
return render(request,'hello/pathesForm.html',{'formset':form})
i use print('hello) to try know where is the problem and the result seems like the form is not valid how i can to customize the style of my form like the first one
allways if you have a problem with from use print(form.errors) before the form is valid and after it i got my problem and i got this error [{'id': ['This field is required.']} soulition:
<form role="form" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ formset.management_form }}
{% for form in formset %}
{% for hidden in form.hidden_fields %}
{{ hidden }}
{% endfor %}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
{% bootstrap_field form.name %}
</div>
</div>
{% if form.maybemissing %}
{% bootstrap_field form.maybemissing %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
i think it success using formset only because of ( id add automatically ) and if you want to forloop you should be add it manually
