Django select valid select error on form when using custom form template
I've been hiding behind the answer for a while now, but I haven't found a solution for my problems. I created a custom template for my form and now when I try to submit the form I get this in the select box: select the correct choice. is not one of the options available.
I believe the problems are due to the fact that I am not passing the organization instance, but the id. I tried {{form.instance.organization}} and then I got None where the select box should be
views.py:
class AddNewView(generic.View):
formClass = AddNewForm
template_name = 'myapp/subscription_form.html'
def get(self, request):
groups = self.request.user.groups.values_list('id', flat=True).first()
form = self.formClass(groups, None)
return render(request, self.template_name, {'form': form})
def post(self, request):
groups = self.request.user.groups.values_list('id', flat=True).first()
form = self.formClass(groups, request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
subscription = form.save(commit=False)
organization = request.user.groups.values_list('id', flat=True).first()
input_user = self.request.user
stuff = form.cleaned_data['stuff']
description = form.cleaned_data['description']
subscription.save()
return render(request, self.template_name, {'form': form})
forms.py:
class AddNewForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, groups,*args,**kwargs):
super (AddNewView, self ).__init__(*args,**kwargs)
self.fields['organization'].queryset = Organization.objects.filter(group=groups)
class Meta:
model = Subscription
fields = [
'organization',
'stuff',
'description',
]
models.py:
class Organization(models.Model):
d_number = models.CharField(max_length=25)
city = models.CharField(max_length=100)
group = models.ManyToManyField(Group, help_text="groups")
class Subscription(models.Model):
organization = models.ForeignKey(Group, help_text="which organization")
input_user = models.CharField(max_length=150)
input_date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
description = models.CharField(max_length=1000, null=True, blank=True, help_text='Description')
stuff = models.CharField(max_length=100)
