How to make form bound inside Django UpdateView?
I have a view deriving from UpdateView like this: views.py class MyView(UpdateView): model = MyModel form_class = MyForm def get_object(self, queryset=None): pk = self.kwargs.get('pk') return get_object_or_404(self.model, pk=pk) urls.py url(r'^edit/(?P<pk>\d+)/3/$', views.MyView.as_view(), name='...'), For some reason, my form is unbound. As far as understand, the respective instance to be updated is not passed to the form. Any hints what could the reason be for this ? -

Understanding of `is None` in django (python)

How do I use placeholders with Class-based password reset views?
There are four such view : PasswordResetView sends the mail # - PasswordResetDoneView shows a success message for the above # - PasswordResetConfirmView checks the link the user clicked and # prompts for a new password # - PasswordResetCompleteView shows a success message for the above.

Creating model instance in django
please help me with the Django question. I am new here, have searched Stackoverflow and documentation, but still can't understand how to solve the following problem. The general task: there is a list of the events which are displayed in a table view, the user clicks on the event and gets redirected to a single event page, which displays extra information about an event. There is a button on this template that should give functionality to record some data of the Event in the user-selected events list. And I really don't get how to pass the event data into the form to create the user_event... of maybe I chose the wrong way to create the instance of the model?

The easiest way for Latin -> Cyrilic transliteration in Django
I need to allow user to freely choose whether he/she wants to display Latin or Cyrilic version of website. So, my question is - what is the easiest way to transliterate every single character in a Django web site? I do not need translation nor localization, just simple character replacement, let's say "Bravo" should be rendered as "Браво" Issue is that this need to be done for each static html page and data in database as well. Is there some package for python or django that makes this possible like in Wordpress? Ideally, this should be done somehow in Template (Model -> View -> Template) context. Duplicating templates (and adding new urls for each) would solve problem for static html pages but it would be time consuming and I want to avoid it, and besides it would left text from database unsolved. -
