Why won't Django load my CSS files when I already used static?
I'm trying to create a website but idk why some of my CSS is not working on the page. I followed the format my teacher gave and his worked so idk why mine won't. in urls.py of the project: from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include from django.conf import settings from django.conf.urls.static import static urlpatterns = [ path('system/', include ('system.urls')), path('admin/', admin.site.urls), ] + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT) in HTML file: {% load static %} <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'css/styles.css' %}"> in CSS file: .body{ background-color: yellow; } .title { color: #000; font-family: Arial Black; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 4%; } .list { color: #000; font-family: Arial; position: absolute; top: 10%; left: 10%; } When I python manage.py runserver, the page background is still white and the text is also white so I have to block them to see it. I tried to do the collectstatic but it gave a warning that it will overwrite existing files so I canceled it. My teacher also haven't taught us the collectstatic command. What am I doing wrong here? -
Why do my changes not save in static css files in django?
They used to save before, but all of a sudden they do not. I even have DEBUG = True and I have django.contrib.staticfiles in my installed apps. I'm not really what code I should provide, so if anyone needs any, please ask, and I'll send you the code. Thank You! -

Trying to add a "add to wishlist button" in my Django web application
I'm trying to add an "add to wishlist" button to my page that lists books. When a user presses the button, it will add the isbn (pk of the books) along with the user id into the wishlist table. For some reason, it's not adding them into my database when I press the button. There are no errors shown so i don't know what's the problem. Here's my code #views.py class wishlistView(TemplateView): template_name = 'TextSearch/wishlist.html' def post(self, request, pk): isbn = self.request.POST.get('isbn') current_user = request.user book = wishlist(userid_id = current_user.id, ISBN_id = isbn) book.save() return my HTML code {% if user.is_authenticated %} <form method="post"> {% csrf_token %} <input type="hidden" value="{{book.pk}}" name="isbn"> <a href="{% url 'TextSearch:wishlist' book.pk %}" >Add To WishList</a> </form> {% else %} <a href="{% url 'User:RegisterView' %}" >Add To WishList</a> {% endif %} Thank You in advance, I'm new to Django. -
How to order by a field in an another model in Django
I have two tables here, one is called SystemPushLog and another called UserPermission, they are both have a user_id field with IntegerField. class SystemPushLog(models.Model): ... user_id = models.IntegerField(null=True) class UserPermission(models.Model): user_id = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True) expire_datetime = models.DateTimeField(null=True) # 会员过期时间 ... The reason why they are chosen IntegerField rather than an Foreignkey is bacause the User model is in another system. And we have to retrieve user info by gRPC remote function calls. So, we just save the user_id as an IntegerField. Now, I am stucking in how to order by expire_datetime field on another model UserPermission in queryset of SystemPushLog. The two table does not have relations except sharing the same user_id field. I have tried to implement using raw SQL like this: qualified_ids = [item.id for item in queryset] queryset = SystemPushLog.objects.raw("""RAW SQL IGNORED""") ordered_log_ids = [item.id for item in queryset] clauses = ' '.join(['WHEN id=%s THEN %s' % (pk, i) for i, pk in enumerate(ordered_log_ids)]) ordering = 'CASE %s END' % clauses queryset = SystemPushLog.objects.filter(id__in=ordered_log_ids).extra( select={'ordering': ordering}, order_by=('ordering',) ) # Now the queryset is ordered... But, it runs really slowly. Maybe it is because of clauses = ' '.join(['WHEN id=%s THEN %s' % (pk, i) for i, pk in … -
Trouble using python dictionary in a Django template
So I have a python dictionary storing the size and the amount each size has, titled final_list. Then I'm passing that to the template using "sizes": final_list. In the html template, I'm trying to create a drop-down selection with all the sizes, and only display sizes that are available, or have an amount not equal to 0. The problem is, it seems as if it isn't accepting the dict or something, since the dropdown shows up empty. Below is the code I have, any help would be much appreciated. Views.py I'm getting the sizing info from a model called 'Size' then checking if there are 0 objects of that size. Then I'm creating the dictionary to only have sizes that are actually available. from django.template.defaulttags import register @register.filter def get_item(dictionary, key): return dictionary.get(key) def product(request, code): sizes = Size.objects.get(code=code) all_size = ['small', 'medium', 'large', 'XL'] final_list = {} for size in all_size: if getattr(sizes, size) == 0: pass else: final_list[size] = getattr(sizes, size) return render(request, "website/listing.html", { "sizes": final_list }) HTML (website/listing.html) <form method="POST"> <select name="sizes" style="width: 90px; height: 20px;"> {% csrf_token %} {% for size in sizes %} {% if final_list|get_item:size != 0 %} <option>{{size}}</option> {% endif %} {% … -
My django custom form validation errors are not being rendered

Django request.POST.items() not behaving as expected
I have an incoming ajax request, if I print post that like this: print("post_data %s" % request.POST) I get this: post_data <QueryDict: {'csrfmiddlewaretoken': ['...'], 'contact_method 1[]': ['Facebook', 'https://www.facebook.com/aandro.veinilla/', 'Send me a message'], 'contact_method 2[]': ['Whatsapp', '+593998375445', 'contact me after 8pm']}> As you can see, it is a dict with some keys and the values are lists. But if I print it like this: for k, v in request.POST.items(): print("k: %s" % k) print("v: %s" % v) I get this: k: csrfmiddlewaretoken v: ...hEm9OcUE k: contact_method 1[] v: Send me a message k: contact_method 2[] v: contact me after 8pm It only prints the last item in each list, why? I need to iterate over the all the values received, not only the last item in the list. Also One weird thing that might have something to do (not sure) is that django appends '[]' to the dictionary keys. I'm sure I didn't do that in js. -
Sending a simple message from user to user in Django
I am trying to create a simple form that allows users to send messages to each other in Django. My model looks like this: class Message(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(Profile, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='messages_to') sender = models.ForeignKey(Profile, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='messages_from') message = models.TextField(blank=True) unread = models.BooleanField(default=True) And my form looks like this: class MessageForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Message fields = ('message',) I would like to display the form on the recipients profile page. I think I need to include the senders id in the url for django to know where the message is coming from, so I link to the recipients page with this url: path('profile/<int:user_id>/<int:sender_id>', ProfileDetailView.as_view(), name='profile_detail') Finally here is my view which renders the users profile page and the form to send the message: class ProfileDetailView(FormMixin, DetailView): model = Profile template_name = 'users/detail.html' form_class = MessageForm def get_object(self): profile = Profile.objects.get(pk=self.kwargs['user_id']) return profile def form_valid(self, form): instance = form.save(commit=False) instance.user = Profile.objects.get(pk=self.kwargs['user_id']) instance.sender = Profile.objects.get(id=self.kwargs['sender_id']) instance.save() return super(ProfileDetailView, self).form_valid(form) def get_success_url(self): return reverse('/') Currently the page and form are rendering correctly however when I type a message into the form and click send the page only refreshes and turns blank.

DateTimeField is null but doesn't appear for __isnull=True
I have a model with this field: block_date = models.DateTimeField(default=None, null=True) I want the block date to be unset when the model instance is created. Later, if the user gets blocked then the date is set. I want to select users that are not blocked meaning block_date is None. So I try to query all the models like this: Profile.objects.filter(block_date__isnull=True) <QuerySet []> Profile.objects.all()[0].block_date ***empty line*** Profile.objects.all()[0].block_date=="" False Profile.objects.all()[0].block_date==None True So if the block_date is None, why is the first queryset empty? -

Setting up OIDC for a backend API + frontend SPA
I’ve got a project using a Django backend, with Django Rest Framework to serve an API, and a Vue.js frontend SPA to consume the API. I’m running into some kind of CORS issue during authentication. I’ve been using mozilla-django-oidc to implement the Authorization Code flow with Okta. This works fine pretty much out of the box, and if I navigate to the API in my browser, I can login to Okta and I get a Django session. I’ve also enabled SessionAuthentication for DRF, which allows the same session cookies generated by Django to be accessible by the SPA (both SPA and API are on the same domain), provided I login first directly through the API. This all works fine until the id token expires. In Django, when the id token expires, I get a redirect to https://example.okta.com/oauth2/v1/authorize?..., the Authorization Code flow completes and I get sent on through to the originally requested page. Where things fail is in an ajax request from the SPA to the API with an expired id token. I get the same redirect, but this time it fails due to CORS. Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://example.okta.com/oauth2/v1/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=X&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2F127.0.0.1%3A8000%2Foidc%2Fcallback%2F&state=X&scope=openid+email+profile&prompt=none&nonce=X' (redirected from 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/api/X') from origin 'http://127.0.0.1:8080' has been blocked by … -

XMLHttpRequest blocked due to a CORS related issue?
I'm somewhat new to programming and would very much appreciate any help or guidance. I'm working on a project where the back end is made up of Python/Django and I have a React.js front end. Everything works fine when I'm in my local host or development environment, but when I deployed to heroku and switched to production I'm not able to make any requests with my API. I receive the following error in the console: Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'heroku-project-app.com' from origin 'current-github project.io' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Admittedly, some of my project came from a template my former coding bootcamp provided, but I know nothing of CORS. Is there some kind of configuration or setup I have to create? Are there any resources that cant help me better understand? I don't even know if there is code I should be providing to help anyone better understand my question. If there is, please ask me and I'll be more than happy to follow up. -
URLs with no prefixes
I wonder if it is possible to access all pages and its detail pages without any extra prefix. Example: ''' /vegetables /carrot --> (detail page for vegetables) /fruits /apple --> (detail page for fruits) ''' and different views should be used for fruits and vegetables. Sample URL patterns, #urls.py urlpatterns = [ path('', views.index, name='index'), path('fruits/', views.all_fruits, name='fruits'), path('vegetables/', views.all_vegetables, name='vegetables'), path('<slug:slug>/', views.fruit_detail, name='fruit'), path('<slug:slug>/', views.vegatable_detail, name='vegetable'), ] Predictably; when trying to access the vegetable detail page, gives an error because of using fruit's views.

Are there any disadvantages or limitations of using vue or react on a django project, without node js?
Me and some friends are starting a new web app project, and for the back-end using django. For the front end, we are considering using a either vue or react but none of us are very familiar with them. If possible, we would like to use heroku as a development environment (very simple for pure django apps), then deploy on google cloud's compute engine (most likely using nginx server) once we're ready. After looking into vue/react to see what kind of infrastructure changes/complications we might come across, it seems that clientside, both of them can be used the same as any other imported javascript library ( by adding a 「<script src=...」 tag to a corresponding html file), and therefore all that would be required, would be to place the js files in the static resources folder of django. Under this arrangement, we could just feed data from a context json object in a django view to the vue/react. Are the any issues that someone experienced with vue/react can see with this approach, caused by not serving the vue/react directly from a node server? From what I can understand, the limitations of using vue/react without node js are dependency management is …
