I have two forms in the Settings page: change password and change email. My
code in profile.py:
@auth.requires_login()
def settings():
#change user's password
change_password = auth.change_password(next=URL('profile', 'settings'))
change_password.update(_class='formstyle', _name='change_password')
#change user's email
change_email = SQLFORM.factory(Field('email',
requires=[IS_EMAIL(error_message="Wrong email"), IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,
'auth_user.email', error_message="Email already exists")], label='New
email'), formstyle='divs')
change_email.update(_class='formstyle', _name='email_change')
if change_email.process(formname='email_change').accepted:
response.flash = "Email changed"
else:
response.flash = None
return dict(change_password=change_password,
change_email=change_email)
Both forms work fine. Password and email get changed.
When the change_email form is submitted, I am still on Settings page and
flash message is displayed ("Email changed"). I would like the same when I
submit change_password.
I'm not sure how to check whether session.flash gets overridden.
