Re: Automatically assign model instance to the user who created it. And only that user can edit/delete the instance.

for question 2 :

    def get_queryset(self):  # the user want to edit this post must be owner this post

        post_qs = super(UpdatePost, self).get_queryset()

        return post_qs.filter(user=self.request.user)

try that in your views

form = Dog_Form(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
    form_save = form.save(commit=False)
    form_save.user = request.user # user is logged in
    form.save()

Let's say I have a model called 'Dogs'.  Users can create instances of Dogs.  Let's say we have a user called User1.  I have 2 questions:

1. When User1 creates an instance of Dogs, how do I automatically assign that instance to User1?  I tried using a model field like this but it doesn't pick the user automatically:

user = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=False)

2. After the instance has been created, how do I make the instance only editable and removable by the user who made it?  Basically, if User1 creates an instance of Dogs, only User1 can edit and delete that instance. 

Thanks.
