Hi Furbeenator,
thanks a lots, it works !!! :-)))
I've use your first solution. You say that "category would have to be
the first Allow Null field in your model" wich is not the case here. A
"phone" field is the first step (Step0) can be empty :
telephone = models.CharField(max_length=14, blank=True)
Maybe I do a confusion between "Allow Null" and "blank=True) ?
To be sure to understand your solution, I go bellow step by step:
1 class InscriptionWizard(SessionWizardView):
2 def done(self, form_list, **kwargs):
3 instance = Customer()
4 for form in form_list:
5 for field, value in form.cleaned_data.iteritems():
6 if field == 'category':
7 instance.save()
8 setattr(instance, field, value)
9 instance.save()
Line 5 : Iterate over field and values
Line 6 : If field name is category, then save the instance BEFORE
setting attribute (setattr) for the category field. Then a PK is
available in the DB for saving the m2m field category, wich is done
Line 9.
Is it the way it works and has to works ?
Again, thanks a lots for help .... Yahoooooo !!!
Regards
Alain
