Re: Issues saving a formset form with multiple forms.

It looks like i'm passing the right objects but get told there isn't a comments field Exception Type:AttributeErrorException Value: 'PollForm' object has no attribute 'comments' The debug info says: poll.comments.append(self) ... ▼ Local vars Variable Value self user poll On

Re: Issues saving a formset form with multiple forms.

Issues saving a formset form with multiple forms.
