Re: Question about form_valid: how to automatically set multiple fields when users input data via CreateView supported form?

Hi, Britto, Sorry for my late reply. Thank you so much! I learnt a lot. Looks like you created a function called get_context_data and put all comment data from Comment database into context with key 'comments'. You then called 'comments' in the template. Now I don't need reated_name='comment' i

Hi, Britto, Wow, it's working as expected! Thank you so much. (*So sorry, one more question below, please find it!*) Basically, you added blank=True for author field and article field in Comment model. In this way, I don't need to set author/article field in CommentCreateView. Instead, we have

The best way to debug it is add a print function with dir function just before the error occurring line and see what are available attributes in request.POST object like this print(dir("", request.POST, "")) . Also without dir function will show what is available in POST. Look at th
