How do I customize registration form HTML?

[Tom Tanner]

The HTML for the user registration form looks like this:

<form method="post">

 {% csrf_token %}

 {{ registration_form.as_p }}

 <button type="submit">Register</button>

</form>

I understand that the `registration_form.as_p` line automatically gives me the form's HTML. But I'd like to customize that HTML. For instance, I'd like the label text to be placeholders instead. How do I do this?

If it helps, `registration_form` is `UserCreationForm()`

Hello,

I don't know if this tutorial will help you. It helped me a lot.

It is a very good serie teaching how to build a board.

Intead of rendering it with the as_p. You can render them individually.

ie

{{form.name}}

{{form.username}}

 In the forms.py, in each of the fields, add widget attributes.

def MyForm(forms.ModelForm):

    name = forms.CharField(label='name',     widgets=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder':'Name', 'class':'yourInputFieldClassName'}))

Hey, i made a mistake in the previous reply. Its widget and not widgets. The correct code is:

ie

{{form.name}}

{{form.username}}

 In the forms.py, in each of the fields, add widget attributes.

def MyForm(forms.ModelForm):

I’d recommend you to look at crispy forms as well.

Where can I find all the options like {{ form.name }} ?
