The following is my model view:
class ProfileDetail(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100,null=True)
email = models.EmailField(max_length=50,unique=True,null=True)
age = models.IntegerField(max_length=3,null=True)
gender = models.CharField(max_length=10,null=True)
interested_in = models.CharField(max_length=10,null=True)
dob = models.DateField(null=True)
country = models.CharField(max_length=25,null=True)
about_you = models.CharField(max_length=200,null=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.interested_in
I need to display the check box value separately as Sports Music Gardening and not the following Interested In:[u'Sports', u'Music', u'Gardening'] How to display separately and check the values
Your error is that you are trying to store a list into a char field, that's why you are seeing the repr of the list.
First, in your view, change the line:
update_interested_in=request.POST.getlist('interested_in')
to
update_interested_in = ','.join(request.POST.getlist('interested_in'))
Then add a method to your model.py that splits the string:
class ProfileDetail(models.Model):
...
def interested_in_list(self):
return self.interested_in.split(',')
You can then use the join template filter:
{{ all.interested_in_list|join:"<br/>"|safe }}
If you have to construct the checkboxes yourself, you can use something like:
{% for interest in all.interested_in_list %}
<input name="interested_in" type="checkbox" value="{{ interest }}"> {{ interest }}
{% endfor %}
