I tried multiple links on stackov. but none worked, I can't get my bio form to save the data on the db for the user profile :/
I managed to save the first name and last name, but I can't make the bio save... This is my code:
profile.html
<form method="POST">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ user_BioAndSocialForm.bio |as_crispy_field }}
</p>
<div class="form-group">
<button class="btn btn-outline-info" type="submit">Update</button>
</div>
</form>
views.py
from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
from django.contrib import messages # to display alert messages when the form data is valid
from .forms import UserSignUpForm, UserUpdateForm, ProfileUpdateForm, UserProfileForm, BioAndSocialForm
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required

def profile(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
user_ProfileForm = UserProfileForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
user_BioAndSocialForm = BioAndSocialForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
if user_ProfileForm.is_valid() and user_BioAndSocialForm.is_valid():
user_ProfileForm.save()
user_BioAndSocialForm.save()
messages.success(request, f'Profile updated!')
return HttpResponseRedirect(request.path_info)
else:
messages.error(request, _('Please correct the error below.'))
else:
user_ProfileForm = UserProfileForm(instance=request.user)
user_BioAndSocialForm = BioAndSocialForm(instance=request.user)
context = {
'user_ProfileForm': user_ProfileForm,
'user_BioAndSocialForm': user_BioAndSocialForm
}
return render(request, 'users/profile.html', context)

#Image feature upload
image = models.ImageField(default='default.jpg', upload_to='profile_pics')
# If we don't have this, it's going to say profile object only
def __str__(self):
return f'{self.user.username} Profile' # it's going to print username Profile
def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().save(*args, **kwargs)
img = Image.open(self.image.path)
if img.height > 300 or img.width > 300:
output_size = (300, 300)
img.thumbnail(output_size)
img.save(self.image.path)
This is what the view looks like:

When I hit update, and it refreshes, the bio info is not there. Could someone please help me?
Thank you
