To handle multiple forms on one page in Python Django, we can set the forms to use in our views.
For instance, we write
if request.method == 'POST':
bannedphraseform = BannedPhraseForm(request.POST, prefix='banned')
if bannedphraseform.is_valid():
bannedphraseform.save()
else:
bannedphraseform = BannedPhraseForm(prefix='banned')
if request.method == 'POST' and not bannedphraseform.is_valid():
expectedphraseform = ExpectedPhraseForm(request.POST, prefix='expected')
bannedphraseform = BannedPhraseForm(prefix='banned')
if expectedphraseform.is_valid():
expectedphraseform.save()
else:
expectedphraseform = ExpectedPhraseForm(prefix='expected')
in our view to set different forms to use according to different conditions.
We use if
statements to check request methods and form validation to assign which form to render in the page.
