Why is my Django page not being found, even though I have created a model instance for the page?
Details: I have a Django application where I'm trying to create a dynamic view that displays a detail page for a model instance based on a URL parameter.

Django/nginx/gunicorn giving this in deployment: GET https://.../ net::ERR_INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING 200 (OK)
In development my app runs fine, when deployed to my server running django with nginx/gunicorn I get this error on some (not all) pages when I goto them: GET https://mywebpage.yes.com/longhtmlpage/ net::ERR_INCOMPLETE_CHUNKED_ENCODING 200 (OK) I am not even sure where to start with this one, I only see the error by bringing up the browser's dev console. I know its happening though as the web site 'dies' when I hit a page that produces this error, by dies I mean like the menus don't work and I have to reload not the page causing the error but something like the index. Never seen this before and not sure where to start hunting it down, I am curious if its some timeout happening? These pages are pretty large of lots of text(copied straight HTML over from an old site and put it into a static django page) -

Is it reasonable to use Vue + Django / React + Django?
I've decided to create a portfolio project using vue and django. But i've asked myself a question if i should do this. Im not going to use SPA, vue is required only for unifining and more comfortable working with ui (forms, buttons etc.) I wondered if such a choice will bring worse user experience and make my project more difficult for nothing. Have anyone worked with such cases? I have been working with those frameworks one-by-one, but have never tried to combine those. -
CSS/JS Issue: Grey Space Appears Between Navbar and Content on Page Load, Then Disappears on Interaction
I'm working on a Django-based website and encountering an issue with a grey space appearing between my fixed navbar and the content on the home page. The grey space appears only on the initial page load, and once I interact with the page (like scrolling), the grey space disappears, and the layout corrects itself. Here's what happens: On initial load: A grey space appears between the navbar and the content. After any small interaction: The grey space disappears, and the page layout behaves as expected. What I've Tried: I’ve traced the issue to this JavaScript that adjusts the margin of the content based on the height of the navbar: document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () { var navbar = document.getElementById("navbar"); var content = document.querySelector(".content"); function adjustContentMargin() { var navbarHeight = navbar.offsetHeight; content.style.marginTop = navbarHeight + "px"; } // Adjust margin on page load window.onload = function() { adjustContentMargin(); }; // Re-adjust on window resize window.addEventListener('resize', function () { adjustContentMargin(); }); }); Problem: When the JS is active, the page initially loads with the grey space between the navbar and the content. The margin-top gets applied, but it looks like it happens after the grey space appears. If I remove the JS, the page … -
Storing time and date in postgre database based on local time in django project

Is it possible to switch to a through model in one release?
Assume I have those Django models: class Book(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) class Author(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100) books = models.ManyToManyField(Book) I already have a production system with several objects and several Author <-> Book connections. Now I want to switch to: class Book(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=100) class BookAuthor(models.Model): book = models.ForeignKey(Book, on_delete=models.CASCADE) author = models.ForeignKey("Author", on_delete=models.CASCADE) impact = models.IntegerField(default=1) class Meta: unique_together = ("book", "author") class Author(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100) books = models.ManyToManyField(Book, through=BookAuthor) If I do this Migration: from django.db import migrations def migrate_author_books(apps, schema_editor): Author = apps.get_model('yourappname', 'Author') BookAuthor = apps.get_model('yourappname', 'BookAuthor') for author in Author.objects.all(): for book in author.books.all(): # Create a BookAuthor entry with default impact=1 BookAuthor.objects.create(author=author, book=book, impact=1) class Migration(migrations.Migration): dependencies = [ ('yourappname', 'previous_migration_file'), ] operations = [ migrations.RunPython(migrate_author_books), ] then the loop for book in author.books.all() will access the new (and empty) BookAuthor table instead of iterating over the existing default table Django created. How can I make the data migration? The only way I see is to have two releases: Just add the new BookAuthor model and fill it with data, but keep the existing one. So introducing a new field and keeping the old one. Also change every single place where author.books … -

Color problem in disqus in Django and Tailwind
I tried to use disqus in my django project: <div> <div id="disqus_thread"></div> <script> /** * RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION VARIABLES: EDIT AND UNCOMMENT THE SECTION BELOW TO INSERT DYNAMIC VALUES FROM YOUR PLATFORM OR CMS. * LEARN WHY DEFINING THESE VARIABLES IS IMPORTANT: https://disqus.com/admin/universalcode/#configuration-variables */ var disqus_config = function () { this.page.url = "{{ request.path }}"; // Replace PAGE_URL with your page's canonical URL variable this.page.identifier = "{{ news.id }}"; // Replace PAGE_IDENTIFIER with your page's unique identifier variable }; (function () { // DON'T EDIT BELOW THIS LINE var d = document, s = d.createElement('script'); s.src = 'https://site-name.disqus.com/embed.js'; s.setAttribute('data-timestamp', +new Date()); (d.head || d.body).appendChild(s); })(); </script> <noscript>Please enable JavaScript to view the <a href="https://disqus.com/?ref_noscript">comments powered by Disqus.</a></noscript> </div> But I got this error: Uncaught Error: parseColor received unparseable color: oklch(0.7464770.0216264.436) I'm using tailwind in project and I guessed that problem might be because of it.

Django date format puzzle in multi language app - SHORT_DATE_FORMAT not used with English
We use Django 4.2.11 and I have a bit of a date format puzzle regarding localization in different languages in our project. We are using jquery datepicker and configure it with the current active language. The behaviour of date fields is consistent in languages such as German, Italian and French. Dates are displayed according to the SHORT_DATE_FORMAT of Django, and the returned dates of datepicker show the same formatting. Only with English it's different. The SHORT_DATE_FORMAT is defined as being m/d/Y - but the date get's displayed in the form of YYYY-MM-DD. This leads to the weird behaviour that the user gets displayed a date like for instance 2024-09-08 and when chosing a date from the datepicker the same field shows a value of 09/08/2024. But still the form can be saved without errors and the date is handled correctly. The date field is defined as declarationDate = models.DateField() in the model. We are using django-crispy-forms 2.1 with bootstrap 5. Any ideas what goes wrong here? Where can I look? (I've looked for some time now ...) -

Django Admin: How to Set a Default Filter Without Conflicting with User-Selected Filters?
I'm working with the Django Admin panel and need to set a default filter for a model's changelist view. When the user opens the changelist page for the first time, I want it to automatically filter by a specific value (e.g., status="A"). However, when a user selects a different filter (e.g., status="B"), the default filter (status="A") should not be applied. What I Have Tried: I've overridden the changelist_view method in my ModelAdmin class to check if any status filter is present in the request. If not, I add the default filter (status=A). Here’s what my code looks like: from django.contrib import admin from django.shortcuts import redirect from django.urls import reverse from .models import Person # Replace with your actual model class PersonAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display = ('name', 'status') # Adjust fields to match your model list_filter = ('status',) # Adjust filters to match your model def get_queryset(self, request): # Get the original queryset without any default filtering qs = super().get_queryset(request) return qs def changelist_view(self, request, extra_context=None): # Check if any filters related to 'status' are already applied by looking at request.GET if 'status' not in request.GET and 'status__exact' not in request.GET: # Redirect to the same changelist URL with the default filter … -

Using Django to visualise scraped data
Hi I'm new to django and thought it would be interesting to use it to visualise a data I scraped from certain websites, sth like this video) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcnWEQMT3_A&list=PL-2EBeDYMIbTt63EH9ubqbvQqJkBP3vzy&index=1) However I'm finding it difficult to choose a right way of how to load a data. Right now, I have a python program that scrapes stats of players from big 5 leagues, from fbref.com (football related website) and store them to a csv file. I think I have two options now? Creating a Model in django and read a csv file to store each row as a separate model. So basically, I'm storing a data at Django db, similar to Not creating a separate Django model and using pandas dataframe. (Not storing my data to Django DB). I feel like first approach is less efficient because I'm thinking of adding further data analysis later on, so I would end up using pandas dataframe mainly anyways. However I'm lowkey worried about if anything would go terribly wrong if I don't use the Django database. Which approach is better and are there better ways to do this?? Thank you! I initially tried second approach but I got worried of data managements, -
django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags and sharedpy-0.0.106
I am trying to move a deployment from one server to another to meet some organisational requirements. The components on the source server include: Django 2.2.7 Python 3.7 Components on target (these versions are not fixed but must be current) Django 4.2.13 Python 3.10.14 When running manage.py makemigrations I receive the following error: File "/home/dtracker/dtracker/prime/models.py", line 2, in from sharedpy.django.utils import cache_get_or_set File "/home/dtracker/env/lib/python3.10/site-packages/sharedpy-0.0.106-py3.10.egg/sharedpy/django/utils.py", line 10, in ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags' Reference to django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags in settings.py has replaced with django.templatetags.static. As per the last line of error, django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags cannot be found as it is not available in Django 3+. My question is, does sharedpy-0.0.106 require django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags and if so, how can I remove the need to use sharedpy? Tried to remove sharedpy however when running command received error stating it was required. -

Encountering a 302 redirect issue when submitting a form in React/Django app as API call is being made without proper authentication
In my Django/React app I want a user to be signed in to be able to successfuly submit a request to an API. I successfully login with google and I believe I am passing all of the correct data to the backend api for it to be called. I have configured CORS, ensured my CSRF tokens match, am using @login_required on my Django view, use "credentials: 'include'" in the api call, and have exhausted both ChatGPT and my own internet searching to solve the problem. From my Conversation.jsx file I want to call /api/ask_new_york from app/views.py. Even when logged in I get a 302 response. Here is all of what I think is the relevant code and the output: settings.py: MIDDLEWARE = [ 'corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', 'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware', 'allauth.account.middleware.AccountMiddleware', ] # CORS settings CORS_ALLOW_ALL_ORIGINS = True CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS = True # CSRF settings CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS = [ 'http://localhost:3000', 'http://localhost:8000', 'http://127.0.0.1:8000', 'http://localhost' ] # Disable CSRF cookies only if needed CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = False LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = '/' LOGIN_URL = '/login/' LOGOUT_REDIRECT_URL = '/' app/views.py: @csrf_exempt def get_csrf_token(request): csrf_token = get_token(request) return JsonResponse({'csrf_token': csrf_token}) @login_required def ask_new_york(request): if request.method == 'POST': try: data = json.loads(request.body.decode('utf-8')) input_value = data.get('input_value' users/views.py: This handles the … -
