The lines starting with `venue_form.user` and `venue_form.slug` aren't doing
what you intend. They aren't setting the value of the form's fields to
anything - they are just setting arbitrary attributes on the form, which are
ignored.
What you mean to do is this:
venue_form = VenueForm(request.POST)
if venue_form.is_valid():
venue = venue_form.save(commit=False)
venue.user = u
venue.slug = slugify(venue.name)
venue.save()
To make this work, you'll probably need to add the user and slug fields to
the form's `exclude` tuple.
I don't know what this has to do with "chained FKs", though.
