Hello, I'm trying to make a simple form so I can dissect it and learn but 
from the guide that I'm reading, they are doing it differently from what 
I'm trying to accomplish. This are the two links:

model.py: https://tutorial.djangogirls.org/en/django_models/
view.py, forms.py: https://tutorial.djangogirls.org/en/django_forms/ 

Just for the sake of learning I copied pasted those codes, now... she's 
trying to create multiple pages in that tutorial, one for create and one 
for edit but I only want to have 1 page which I have created, it's my 
profile page, and there I want to edit it whether it's empty or not and 
save it.

If I do it like this in my view.py (which is where the error is happening):


@login_required
def profile(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
u_Passform = PasswordChangeForm(request.user, request.POST)
u_form = UserUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
p_form = ProfileUpdateForm(request.POST,
request.FILES,
instance=request.user.profile)


form = PostForm(request.POST, instance=post)

if u_form.is_valid() and p_form.is_valid() and u_Passform.is_valid() and 
form.is_valid():
u_Passform.save()
u_form.save()
p_form.save()

post = form.save(commit=False)
post.author = request.user
post.save()

update_session_auth_hash(request, u_Passform)
messages.success(request, f'Your account has been updated!')

return redirect('profile')

else:
form = PostForm(instance=post)
u_Passform = PasswordChangeForm(request.user)
u_form = UserUpdateForm(instance=request.user)
p_form = ProfileUpdateForm(instance=request.user.profile)

context = {
'form': form,
'user_AddressForm': AddressForm,
'u_Passform': u_Passform,
'u_form': u_form,
'p_form': p_form
}

return render(request, 'users/profile.html', context)


it says: UnboundLocalError: local variable 'post' referenced before 
assignment

the error I think that is basically on the form declaration right? how can 
I get the data from the form? I created an admin section for it and I see 
that the form data was saved there, but how can I display it on the view? 
Note: the profile.html works fine, it's just the view.py the one with the 
problem I think.

Thanks guys
