I Need Help in this problem

Hello Guys! I am making a profile update page in my django website.
The following is the problem that I am facing:

  • Whenever I clicks on "Update Pic" button the name gets blank even in admin

  • This is my views.py
    from django.shortcuts import render, redirect
    from django.contrib.auth.models import User, auth
    from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
    from django.contrib import messages
    from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
    from .models import Profileforusers
    from .forms import UserUpdateForm, PicUpdateForm, BioUpdateForm
    
    # Create your views here.
    
    @login_required
    def userprofile(request):
        if request.method == 'POST':
            u_form = UserUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
            p_form = PicUpdateForm(request.POST, request.FILES, instance=request.user.profileforusers)
            bio_form = BioUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user.profileforusers)
            if u_form.is_valid():
                u_form.save()
                messages.success(request, "Profile Is Updated Successfully!")
                return redirect("profilesettings")
            elif p_form.is_valid():
                p_form.save()
                messages.success(request, "Profile Picture Is Updated Successfully!")
                return redirect("profilesettings")
            elif bio_form.is_valid():
                bio_form.save()
                messages.success(request, "Bio Updated Successfully!")
                return redirect("profilesettings")
    
        else:
            u_form = UserUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
            p_form = PicUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user.profileforusers)
            bio_form = BioUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user.profileforusers)
            context = {
                'u_form': u_form,
                'p_form': p_form,
                'bio_form': bio_form
            }
        return render(request, 'siteaccount/usersettings.html', context)
    
    Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

    This is My signals.py

    from django.db.models.signals import post_save
    from django.contrib.auth.models import User
    from django.dispatch import receiver
    from .models import Profileforusers
    
    @receiver(post_save, sender=User)
    def create_profile(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
        if created:
            Profileforusers.objects.create(user=instance)
    
    
    @receiver(post_save, sender=User)
    def save_profile(sender, instance, **kwargs):
        instance.profileforusers.save()
    
    Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

    This is My model

    from django.db import models
    from django.contrib.auth.models import User
    from PIL import Image
    # Create your models here.
    
    class Profileforusers(models.Model):
        user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
        user_bio = models.CharField(max_length=150, default='Write About Yourself')
        user_image = models.ImageField(upload_to='thephotos/userphotos', default='defaultpicture.jpg')
    
        def __str__(self):
            return f"Profile Of {self.user.username}"
    
        def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
            super(Profileforusers, self).save(*args, **kwargs)
            usr_img = Image.open(self.user_image.path)
            if usr_img.height>300 or usr_img.width>300:
                output_img = (300, 300)
                usr_img.thumbnail(output_img)
                usr_img.save(self.user_image.path)
    
    Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

    This is my forms.py

    from django import forms
    from django.contrib.auth.models import User
    from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
    from .models import Profileforusers
    
    class UserUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm):
        email = forms.EmailField()
        class Meta:
            model = User
            fields = ['first_name']
            widgets = {
                'first_name' : forms.TextInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control'})
            }
    
    class PicUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm):
        class Meta:
            model = Profileforusers
            fields = ['user_image']
    
    class BioUpdateForm(forms.ModelForm):
        class Meta:
            model = Profileforusers
            fields = ['user_bio']
    
    Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

    And this is usersettings.html

    Is it possible for the user to update both Bio and Profile at same time? I cannot be sure with this limited information but I believe problem is in userprofile function

    Then I recommend changing code under request.Post statement as follows

    if request.method == 'POST':
        u_form = UserUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user)
        p_form = PicUpdateForm(request.POST, request.FILES, instance=request.user.profileforusers)
        bio_form = BioUpdateForm(request.POST, instance=request.user.profileforusers)
        success_message = ""
        if u_form.is_valid():
            u_form.save()
            success_message += "Profile Is Updated Successfully! "
        if p_form.is_valid():
            p_form.save()
            success_message += "Profile Picture Is Updated Successfully!"
        if bio_form.is_valid():
            bio_form.save()
            success_message += "Bio Updated Successfully!"
        messages.success(request, success_message)
        return redirect("profilesettings")
    
    Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

    lets say user updates both profile picture and bio.. then previous implementation only updates picture and not bio. That seems to be the cause of the issue you.

    update: made an edit.
