Form not being published

I am creating a website using Django. I'd like to give users the chance to comment on pictures they have posted. I have created a comment model and a comment form, and put the following code into the HTML document for the photo gallery: Leave a comment {{ comment_fo

Form not displaying

Apologies if I'm posting this twice - my original message isn't displayed in the list of messages. I am creating a website using Django. I'd like to give users the chance to comment on pictures they have posted. I have created a comment model and a comment form, and put the following code into

Re: Form not displaying

Sure. It's as follows: @login_required def add_comment(request, image_id): template_name = 'add_comment.html' image = get_object_or_404(Picture, id=image_id) comments = image.comments.filter(active=True) new_comment = None # Comment posted if request.method == 'POST':

Re: Form not displaying

Thanks Ernest. I'm not sure I follow (forgive me, I am very new to Django). Given that template_name is defined earlier in the method as 'add_comment.html', surely what I've written is equivalent to: return render(request, add_comment.html, {'image': image,

HTML code not being read

Hi I have written some code that allows users of a website to comment on photos in a picture gallery, using a form. However, when I test the code, no comments are displayed. It would appear that Django is not processing the following code (from my HTML file for the photo gallery), given that '

Re: HTML code not being read

Hi Thanks for getting back to me. This is from my views.py: @login_required def add_comment(request, image_id): new_comment = None template_name = 'add_comment.html' image = get_object_or_404(Picture, id=image_id) comment = image.comment.filter(active=True) new_comment = Non

Hi I'm not sure what you mean by 'Have you all ready use a content that define your content'. I'm new to Django, so am not familiar with all of the terminology yet. Can you elaborate please? Thanks Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django u

Re: HTML code not being read

Thanks guys I previously had 'comments' in the plural in views.py, but had the same problem. Am I right in thinking that Django recognises that 'comments' is the plural of 'comment', so if it knows from the view what a comment is, it knows what comments are? Thanks, Jeff -- You received t

Re: HTML code not being read

I've modified my code a bit to try (unsuccessfully!) to get this working. My views.py is now as follows: @login_required def add_comment(request, image_id): new_comment = None template_name = 'add_comment.html' image = get_object_or_404(Picture, id=image_id) comment = image.commen

NoReverseMatch error message - Please help

Associating comments with images

I am creating a website where users can comment on photos in a gallery. The challenge I currently have is that Django is not able to determine which of the photos the comment 'submit' button relates to. This is my HTML code for the photo gallery: comments {% if not comm

Re: NoReverseMatch error message - Please help

Thanks Ryan. I've just tried that, but I still get an error message. By the way, is it definitely .id and not _id? I've seen both, and Django docs says: 'Behind the scenes, Django appends "_id" to the field name to create its database column name, which makes me wonder if it might be _id. Inc

Re: Associating comments with images

Thanks Andreas I think that one of the mistakes I'd made previously was to not associate particular comments with particular pictures. I've tried to rectify that using the code below. However, when I do this, the page I get is empty. Any advice would be appreciated: {% extends 'nowandthen/b

Re: Associating comments with images

Thanks Andreas When I do that, I get an error message: NoReverseMatch at /photo_feed/ Could the problem be with my add_comment.html? The code for that is as follows: {% extends 'nowandthen/base.html' %} {% load staticfiles %} {% block title_block %} Add self {% endblock %} {% block body_block %

Populate script not working

I've created a population script to test my website - please see below - but I get the following error message: django.contrib.auth.models.DoesNotExist: User matching query does not exist. Given that I've created a hypothetical user, I'm not sure why this is? Any suggestions would much apprecia
