and why should you need it ?
you can always do:
newthing = {}
if something:
newthing = form.vars

OK. So I removed what I had before (tables in a database) and moved to
SQLFORM.factory. I now have this in my controller:
form = SQLFORM.factory(
Field('is_tutor', 'boolean'),
Field('image', 'upload',
requires=IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_IMAGE(extensions=('jpeg', 'jpg', 'png', 'gif',
if form.process().accepted:
if form.vars.is_tutor:
...whatever, e.g. db.table.insert(**form.vars)
How do you structure your db to save this data is up to your application:
if you need this stored next to the auth_user table the recommended way is
extending auth_user with

Another question has come to mind...I have the following code in my
controller now:
if tform.process().accepted:
if tform.vars.is_tutor:
auth.add_membership('Tutors')
db.auth_user.insert(
a_bunch_of_fields = tform.vars.a_bunch_of_fields)
And the same goes for db.auth_user.insert() ... does it imply the logged
user or not?

depends on where do you use that kind of logic. If the user is already
logged, you need to UPDATE the corresponding auth_user row with the data
inserted, something among the lines of
db(db.auth_user.id == auth.user_id).update(**form.vars)
If instead you are requesting the user to fill that
How can I blank out all the **form.vars in the event that the
form.vars.is_tutor returns false? Is there a simple way to do this or
should I manually put in None for all the fields?

There's some problem with what I'm doing now.
I have form = SQLFORM.factory() with all the fields in my controller.
In my db.py file, I am extending auth with
auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user']= [
Field http://127.0.0.1:8000/examples/global/vars/Field('t_image'),
Field
if it's checked the corresponding var would be True.
If the form is submitted the controller will receive that field as
request.vars.fieldname or as form.vars.fieldname if you are using a form.
When you get to the form.process() line the value has been already been
shipped to the database. You
