I have a model in django:
introduction = models.TextField(null=False, blank=False)
When writing in the text field I want the colour of the middle section to be different from the rest. Any ideas how I do this how to set colours in the textfield?
I'm not sure I get what you mean by 'middle section', but regardless, this would have to be done in client-side since what you want is to manipulate something like the color of a certain TextField. You could do it by using the CSS color properties or even Javascript.
give your textfield an identifier in your html code ,
like, id="tf"
then css will be
#tf{
color : #aaaaaa;
}
write your color code in place of #aaaaaa.

I am using form with django, I succeeded to create the form, but I don't know how to change position of label of my input to the right, because by default label is in the center.
This is an example of I have : picture
code :
input= forms.CharField(
label="myLabel",
required=True,
widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'form-control','maxlength':'30'}))
I will suggest you render the form fields individually at the template level:
Django Docs
First thing, you are using 'form-control' just in your input field, but this class is to use in the entire form. Using as you did you're just applying the features only in your input field
I suggest you use django-bootstrap4 library to render your forms. and select a class for your label as showed in the documentation here
Thanks for your feedbacks, I fixed the issue by adding myLabel<\div>
I am trying to make one Blog using Django 2.0 and I have already created a primitive one. It has a Post model which is as follows:
class Post(models.Model):
PriKey = models.CharField(max_length=255,primary_key=True)
Heading = models.CharField(max_length=100)
DateOfPost = models.DateField(default=datetime.date.today())
Content = models.TextField()
As it can be seen, the content area is only textual and as of now, I can't add any special style or pictures inside my content.
I thought of using HTML tags inside the text content but they are appearing unchanged when the web page is rendered.
So my question is, is there any way of storing pictures along with the text in the content field of the Post model? I want to make something like this
Is there any way of showing the pictures in their respective positions using Django model? If no, is there any other way of doing this?
Also, is there any way of storing HTML codes inside django models and render them as it is when the website is run?
You can store html tags inside the field.
while rendering, to template mark it as safe
{{ post.content|safe }}
This will render all the html tags.
But this is not a good way as it makes you vullerable to cross site scripting attacks
A better method is to use something like a ckeditor
It provides a RichTextField and RichTextUploading Field and using this you can upload pictures, videos, code snippets, style your text and a lot more inside one field.
There are many other optons, but I prefer ckeditor
Ckeditor is a cross platform editor, django-ckeditor is a library containing django implementation of ckeditor which gives you full backend and frontend combined
ckeditor
django-ckeditor
django-pagedown A django app that allows the easy addition of Stack Overflow's "PageDown" markdown editor to a django form field, whether in a custom app or the Django Admin
I think you should give it a try
Cheers :)
in my django project I made a form using
message = forms.CharField(widget=forms.Textarea)
It works out ok and I get this. The text area is resizeable both horizontally and vertically:
I would like to make it un-resizeable horizontally, what should I do? I tried adding "attrs=" to the textarea but can't figure out what to call... Please help... Thanks.
I believe you can achieve this with a css rule:
resize: vertical;
So, one way is to give it a class
message = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextArea(attrs={"class": "message"}))
Then define a css rule
.message{
resize: vertical;
}
I am having problems understanding the token system for the output of query / projections.
If I leave the property as is it displays the text content with HTML formatting intact.
But I need to wrap it with a tag, the html tags get displayed as text.
Rewrite Results -> Rewrite output
<div class="collapse" id="toggle_{Content.Id}">
{Content.Fields.CaseStudy.ClientChallenge} </div>
I am trying to create a collapsible text area, I already have a button that hides/unhides the content.
Why is it displaying as text instead of rendering the tags properly.
I think this is because I don't know how replacement tokens work.
Another example problem is up one level on the edit Layout, I want to set the item class to work-item {Category}, Category being the name/title of a property, which I am using for grouping.
Right above the projection: I want to include some html that lists all the Categorys in a ul i.e. data-filter=".experiential" I have tried things like: work-item {Category} and work-item {Content.Fields.CaseStudy.Category}. Category is a "term" (?) from a taxonomy.
I feel like I am failing to understand how it all works.

I'm trying to make Django's RadioSelect widget render horizontally. I found the following SO post, that I thought had solved the problem: Align radio buttons horizontally in django forms, it basically states to use a custom Renderer, as follows:
class HorizontalRadioRenderer(forms.RadioSelect.renderer):
def render(self):
return mark_safe(u'\n'.join([u'%s\n' % w for w in self]))
class MyForm(ModelForm):
select=forms.ChoiceField(choices=CHOICES, widget=forms.RadioSelect(renderer=HorizontalRadioRenderer
But when I implement this, I still get the radio selection buttons rendering vertically. Here's a screenshot.
This is a seriois problem for my form. Any idea why it isn't working correctly? If it matters, the form is being rendered in a table.
Thanks
UPDATE:
Ok, I've tried something else. The renderer is now:
def render(self):
internal=''.join(['<span id="radio">%s</span>' % w for w in self])
return mark_safe(u'%s' %internal)
and I've added the CSS to my stylesheet:
#radio{
width: 100px;
float: left;
}
This renders the RadioBoxes inline, and looks great. But now there's an even bigger problem. As seen in my screenshot above, I have 2 choices, Yes and N/A. Right now, if I click on either yes or N/A, N/A gets selected. I thought this might be because they were both in spans with the same id, but if I change it to class="radio" the same thing happens. If I remove float: left from the CSS, then it works normally (but, of course, isn't displayed horizontally). Any idea what's causing this?
Whoa: okay.
Still not sure why having them with the same id or class caused them to behave as the same radio box, but I've come up with a solution.
The renderer now reads as follows:
def render(self):
internal = ''.join(['<li>%s</li>' % w for w in self])
return mark_safe(u'<div id="radio"><ul>%s</ul></div>' %internal)
This makes the radio boxes in an un-ordered list, surrounded by a div with an id of radio.
I then have the css:
#radio ul li label{
display:inline;
}
This puts them in a line. Nice and easy. Don't know why the other approach didn't work, when it sounded like it did for another SO user.
