I also came across this issue. I managed to address this by actually looking at the code for django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views.WizardView.
(I am no django expert. So I am sure there might be a cleaner way. This worked for me. So I am just sharing my experience.) I overrode the get and render_done method of SessionWizardView. The session data is saved in a dictionary called storage.data. It is initialized in the get method and destroyed in render_done method. So I created a model in my database to hold: an id and a text field which holds the json version of storage.data. To save the session data, place a hook in render_done method to save the data to the model and generate an id. To restore the session, pass the id as a parameter to the form wizard. I've put some sample code here: https://gist.github.com/3959900 Cheers On Tuesday, 2 October 2012 16:26:57 UTC+1, Alex S-B. wrote: > > I have a long multi-page form wizard (a > django.contrib.formtools.wizard.views.SessionWizardView) that I would like > the user to be able to continue working through even after logging out and > back in from a different computer.
