So I successfully used this method to add initial values using
parse_params as I was dealing with step 0. However, now the client
wants the form order changed so that what was step 0 is now step 2. I
tried using process_step in the exact same way as parse_params, but
the values are not filled in. I can't figure out how to use
process_step like I was able to use parse_params.
this is what I tried
def process_step(self, request, form, step):
profile={}
profile=request.user.get_profile()
if step == 2:
init={
'company': profile.defaultcompany,
'contact': profile.defaultcontact,
'address1': profile.defaultaddress1,
'address2': profile.defaultaddress2,
'address3': profile.defaultaddress3,
'city': profile.defaultcity,
'state': profile.defaultstate,
'zip': profile.defaultzip,
'country': profile.defaultcountry,
'faxareacode': profile.defaultfaxareacode,
'fax': profile.defaultfax,
'areacode': profile.defaultareacode,
'phone': profile.defaultphone,
'email': profile.defaultemail,
'billingcompany': profile.billingcompany,
'billingname': profile.billingname,
'billingaddress1': profile.billingaddress1,
'billingaddress2': profile.billingaddress2,
'billingaddress3': profile.billingaddress3,
'billingcity': profile.billingcity,
'billingstate': profile.billingstate,
'billingzip': profile.billingzip,
'billingcountry': profile.billingcountry,
'billingfaxareacode':
profile.billingfaxareacode,
'billingfax': profile.billingfax,
'billingareacode': profile.billingareacode,
'billingphone': profile.billingphone,
'billingemail': profile.billingemail,
}
if profile.sendreportsto:
init['sendreportsto']=profile.sendreportsto
else:
init['sendreportsto']='Please use the
format:\nName [email protected],
\nName2 [email protected]'
self.initial[2]=init
Thanks for any more help.
