django ModelFormWithFileField, ModelWithFileField

Question

I am trying to import ModelWithFileField without sucsess. here https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/http/file-uploads/ it says to import in the following manner:

from .models import ModelWithFileField

this does not work for me, I get:

ImportError: cannot import name ModelWithFileField

I have upgraded to the latest version of django

I get the same error when trying to do this:

from .forms import ModelFormWithFileField

Anyone out there know how to get these imports working?

It is not a django builtin. It is assumed that your forms.py has your custom form which is named `ModelFormWithFileField` — karthikr, Nov 03 '16 at 18:28
You may want to follow the example [here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/8542030/2285236) as the example in the docs is not complete. — ayhan, Nov 03 '16 at 18:33

No. That is an example of a model that contains a FileField. You need to use your own model.
