Django FormView does not have form context
In the context, form
should be the instantiated form, not the form class. Defining the form_class
is completely separate from including the instantiated form in the context data.
For the example you've given, I think you'd be better to override get_context_data
instead of get
.
def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super(PrefsView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) context['pagetitle'] = 'My special Title' return context
override the get_context_data, context['form'] take from SomeForm, and chage to form_1, you can use in template as form_1
class Something(generic.CreateView): template_name = 'app/example.html' form_class = forms.SomeForm model = models.SomeModel def get_context_data(self, **kwargs): context = super(Something, self).get_context_data(**kwargs) context["form_1"] = context["form"] context["form_2"] = forms.SomeForm2(**self.get_form_kwargs()) return context
