I want to add language selection to the standard django-registration. I tried to complete this lesson from dmitko . The form is displayed correctly, but additional data (locale) is not saved.
I defined a custom model:
class AnymalsProfile(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)
locale = models.CharField(max_length=2)
def __unicode__(self):
return u'%s %s' % (self.user, self.locale)
and form:
from models import AnymalsProfile
from registration.forms import RegistrationFormTermsOfService
class UserRegistrationForm(RegistrationFormTermsOfService):
locale = forms.CharField(max_length=3, widget=forms.Select(choices=LOCALE_CHOICES),label='Language:')
Fields are displayed correctly, but locale (profile) data is not saved. I assume the problem with REGbackend.py is my problem:
from anysite.models import AnymalsProfile
def user_created(sender, user, request, **kwargs):
form = UserRegistrationForm(request.POST)
data = AnymalsProfile(user=user)
data.locale = form.cleaned_data["locale"]
data.save()
from registration.signals import user_registered
user_registered.connect(user_created)
* EDIT *
I tried moving on to production - just for the test - and he raised some errors. I changed the code, but the profile is not saved. Here is what I tried:
from anysite.models import AnymalsProfile
from anysite.forms import UserRegistrationForm
def user_created(sender, user, request, **kwargs):
form = UserRegistrationForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
ProfileData = form.cleaned_data
profile = AnymalsProfile(
user = user.id,
locale = ProfileData["locale"]
)
profile.save()
from registration.signals import user_registered
user_registered.connect(user_created)
