hey guys, got the solution:
for each field to validate, I wrote a validate function:
code snippet:
def clean_<field>:
try:
UserProfile.objects.get(phone_num=self.cleaned_data['<field>'])
except UserProfile.DoesNotExist:
return self.cleaned_data["<field>"]
raise forms.ValidationError(("FIELD VALUE already exist"))
