*models.py*
class Post(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
body = models.TextField()
user = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, blank=True,
null=True)
date = models.DateField(default=datetime.now, blank=True)
text_author = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True, blank=True)
*forms.py*
class PostForm(forms.ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Post
fields = ("title", "body", "user", "text_author")
*views.py*
def create_Post(request):
form = PostForm(request.POST or None)
if form.is_valid():
instance = form.save(commit=False)
instance.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect (instance.get_absolute_url())
context = {
"form": form,
}
return render(request, 'blog/create.html', context)
*As shown in attached image, the user has to select themselves from list of
users before they can submit their post.(which doesn't make sense). I want
the form to know which user is writing the form(assuming they are logged
in) so the user doesn't have to identify themselves before they submit
their post. I'm guessing I need to edit my models.py but I have no idea.
Please Help.*
*Thank you.*
