Body
<p>I am newbie to python as well as Django, and I have started a sample project "blog".</p> <p>Currently blog posts are added to the database manually, but I want to do it at front end by providing a form to the user. I created my <code>model.py</code> and <code>views.py</code> files, but I am unable to see these fields on the front end. I have copied all of my code below:</p> <p><strong>models.py</strong>:</p> <pre><code>class posts(models.Model): author = models.CharField(max_length = 30) title = models.CharField(max_length = 100) bodytext = models.TextField() timestamp = models.DateTimeField() class postForm(ModelForm): class Meta: model = posts </code></pre> <p><strong>views.py</strong>:</p> <pre><code>def home(request): content = posts.objects.all()[:5] return render_to_response('index.html',{'posts' : content}) def save_blog(request): form = postForm if request.POST: form = postForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save return render_to_response('index.html',{'form' : form},context_instance=RequestContext(request)) </code></pre> <p><strong>url.py</strong>:</p> <pre><code>from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url from django.contrib import admin admin.autodiscover() urlpatterns = patterns('', url(r'^$', 'blog.views.home', name='home'), url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)) ) </code></pre> <p><strong>index.html</strong>:</p> <pre><code><body> <div class="container"> <h1>Welcome To</h1> <hr /> {% for post in posts %} <div class="posts"> <h2>{{ post.title }}</h2> <h3>Posted on {{ post.timestamp }} by {{ post.author }}</h3> <p>{{ post.bodytext }}</p> </div> <hr /> {% endfor %} </div> <div class="forms"> <form action="." method="post" name="posts" id="posts">{% csrf_token %} <table> <tr><td>{{form.author.label}}</td><td>{{form.author}}</td></tr> <tr><td>{{form.title.label}}</td><td>{{form.title}}</td></tr> <tr><td>{{form.bodytext.label}}</td><td>{{form.bodytext}}</td></tr> <tr><td></td><td><input type="button" name="btnSave" id="bntSave" value="Submit" class = "default2"/></td> </table> </form> </div> </body> </code></pre> <p><strong>settings.MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES</strong>:</p> <pre><code>MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = ( 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware', 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware', 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware', ) </code></pre> <p>Please let me know if i am missing anything. Also let me know how can I achieve this without using a Django model form.</p> <p>Thanks</p>

2. COThe pattern for using a form in a view is explicitly given [in the documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/forms/#using-a-form-in-a-view). Why aren't you using that?

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
