Re: Using FormMixin with DetailView

Is there a specific reason you aren't just using CreateView rather than trying to mix in a bunch of classes and trying to roll the post() logic yourself? You can probably cut a very large portion of code out and make this super simple.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/class-based-views/generic-editing/#model-forms

You should also consider upgrading Django immediately to a newer version, as 1.6 is no longer supported.

The override is this, I was experimenting with save..

class CommentForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Comment
        exclude = ("parent_post","created_at")

    def create_view(request, **kwargs):

        print "IN VIEW"
        if request.method == "POST":
            parent_fk = self.object
            print "PARRENT"
            print parent_fk
            form = CommentForm(request.POST)
            if form.is_valid():
                new_comment = form.save(commit=False)
                new_comment.parent_post = parent_fk
                new_comment.save()
                return HttpResponseRedirect(request.META.get('HTTP_REFERER'))
