Maybe you could copy the classes and id's from the template and put them in
your form like this :
class SomeForm(forms.Form):
name=forms.CharField(attrs={'class':'form-control', 'id':'name'})
message=forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'the
class name thats on the templates form for the text input'})
And then pass the SomeForm to the view as some context variable, for
example 'form'.
In your template :
<form name="sentMessage" id="contactForm"
novalidate>
<div class="form-group">
{%for field in form%}
{{field.label}} {{field}}
{%endfor%}
<button type="submit" class="btn
btn-xl">Send Message</button>
</form>
This is just advice from beginner to beginner and if there is an easier way
please correct me! If you choose this way Kim and you don't understand
something please ask!
