Yep, here is the ProfileForm class
from django import forms
from django.forms import ModelForm
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class ProfileForm(ModelForm):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(ProfileForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
try:
self.fields['email'].initial = self.instance.user.email
self.fields['first_name'].initial =
self.instance.user.first_name
self.fields['last_name'].initial =
self.instance.user.last_name
except User.DoesNotExist:
pass
email = forms.EmailField(label="Primary email",help_text='')
first_name = forms.CharField(label="First Name",help_text='')
last_name = forms.CharField(label="Last Name",help_text='')
class Meta:
model = User
exclude = ('user',)
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
"""
Update the primary email address, first and last names on the
related User object as well.
"""
u = self.instance.user
u.email = self.cleaned_data['email']
u.first_name = self.cleaned_data['first_name']
u.last_name = self.cleaned_data['last_name']
u.save()
profile = super(ProfileForm, self).save(*args,**kwargs)
return profile
And the view (which is just the default from the Profile app):
def edit_profile(request, form_class=None, success_url=None,
template_name='profiles/edit_profile.html',
extra_context=None):
"""
Edit the current user's profile.
If the user does not already have a profile (as determined by
``User.get_profile()``), a redirect will be issued to the
:view:`profiles.views.create_profile` view; if no profile model
has been specified in the ``AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE`` setting,
``django.contrib.auth.models.SiteProfileNotAvailable`` will be
raised.
**Optional arguments:**
``extra_context``
A dictionary of variables to add to the template context. Any
callable object in this dictionary will be called to produce
the end result which appears in the context.
``form_class``
The form class to use for validating and editing the user
profile. This form class must operate similarly to a standard
Django ``ModelForm`` in that it must accept an instance of the
object to be edited as the keyword argument ``instance`` to
its constructor, and it must implement a method named
``save()`` which will save the updates to the object. If this
argument is not specified, this view will use a ``ModelForm``
generated from the model specified in the
``AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE`` setting.
``success_url``
The URL to redirect to following a successful edit. If not
specified, this will default to the URL of
:view:`profiles.views.profile_detail` for the profile object
being edited.
``template_name``
The template to use when displaying the profile-editing
form. If not specified, this will default to
:template:`profiles/edit_profile.html`.
**Context:**
``form``
The form for editing the profile.
``profile``
The user's current profile.
**Template:**
``template_name`` keyword argument or
:template:`profiles/edit_profile.html`.
"""
try:
profile_obj = request.user.get_profile()
except ObjectDoesNotExist:
return
HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('profiles_create_profile'))
I should have said that I am passing the form class like so:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from profiles import views
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from userinfo.forms import ProfileForm
#the urls for the login sections of the site
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^edit/$',
login_required(views.edit_profile),
{'form_class':ProfileForm},
name='profiles_edit_profile'),
url(r'^(?P<username>\w+)/$',
login_required(views.profile_detail),
name='profiles_profile_detail'),
)
