Re: How to use CreateView with crispy-forms

The | crispy filter provides only minimal (though stylish) rendering - if you want to render all the cool stuff in your helper you need to do {% crispy form %}.

I want to use CreateView along with crispy-forms generated layout. However, it seems that everything I pass to self.helper in forms.py is ignored. Form renders nicely, but only with fields generated by CreateView - all fields passed to Layout are missing.

My views.py

class MyView(CreateView):      form_class = MyForm      model = MyModel        def form_valid(self, form):          pass

My forms.py:

from django.forms import ModelForm, Textarea  from crispy_forms.helper import FormHelper  from crispy_forms.layout import Submit, Layout  from crispy_forms.bootstrap import FormActions    from .models import MyModel    class MyForm(ModelForm):         def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):          super(MyForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)          self.helper = FormHelper(self)          self.helper.form_method = 'POST'          self.helper.add_input(Submit('submit', 'Submit'))          self.helper.layout = Layout(               FormActions(Submit('BlahBlah', 'BlahBlah', css_class='btn-primary')))        class Meta:          model = MyModel          fields = ['xxx', 'yyy']

My image_form.html:

{% load crispy_forms_tags %}  ...  <form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">      {% csrf_token %}      {{ form|crispy }}  </form>

What else should I do to make it work?
