I am really new to django. I have a model and 2 forms like this below extending the User model. The UserProfile is linked to the user model which would be where I have my extra field. I have seen numerous posts but still was't able to solve it. I would like to save the profile with additional parameters like the phone number stated below when the registration form is submitted, I have been spending hours trying to make it work, thanks a lot for your help in advance:
class UserProfile(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User)
name = models.CharField(max_length = 50)
phone_number = models.CharField(max_length=12)
#In form.py
class RegistrationForm(UserCreationForm):
email = forms.EmailField(required=True)
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ['username',
'first_name',
'last_name',
'email',
'password1',
'password2'
]
def save(self, commit=True):
user = super(RegistrationForm, self).save(commit=False)
user.first_name = self.cleaned_data['first_name']
user.last_name = self.cleaned_data['last_name']
user.email = self.cleaned_data['email']
if commit:
user.save()
return user
class RegistrationFormProfile(forms.ModelForm):
phone_number = forms.CharField(max_length = 12)
class Meta:
model = UserProfile
fields = [
'phone_number',
]
def save(self, commit=True):
profile.phone_number = self.cleaned_data['phone_number']
if commit:
profile.save()
return profile
#In views.py
def register(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = RegistrationForm(request.POST)
profileForm = RegistrationFormProfile(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
user = form.save()
if(profileForm.is_valid()):
profileForm.save()
return redirect('accounts/profile')
else:
return redirect('accounts/wrong')
else:
form = RegistrationForm()
profileForm = RegistrationFormProfile()
args = {'form' : form, 'profileForm' : profileForm}
return render(request, 'users/reg_form.html', args)
