forms.py

class PostForm(forms.ModelForm):

    class Meta:

        model = Post

        fields = ("title", "body", "user", "text_author")

views.py

def create_Post(request):

    form = PostForm(request.POST or None)

    if form.is_valid():

        instance = form.save(commit=False)

        instance.save()

        return HttpResponseRedirect (instance.get_absolute_url())

    context = {

        "form": form,

    }

    return render(request, 'blog/create.html', context)

As shown in attached image, the user has to select themselves from list of users before they can submit their post.(which doesn't make sense). I want the form to know which user is writing the form(assuming they are logged in) so the user doesn't have to identify themselves before they submit their post. I'm guessing I need to edit my models.py but I have no idea. Please Help.

Thank you.

First - please don't hijack another topic; rather start your own.

Second - Django recommends you use pip inside a virtualenv (for development); see:
