Can't get Django CreateView to save

Question

No doubt I'm missing something obvious here...

urls.py

url(r'^screening_add/$', ScreeningCreate.as_view(), name="screening_add"),

views.py

class ScreeningCreate(CreateView):
    model = Screening

    def form_valid(self, form):
        return super(ScreeningCreate, self).form_valid(form)

screening_form.html

<form action="." method="post"> {{ form }}{% csrf_token %}
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

This puts up the form with the Screening fields but on submit nothing happens. I have a breakpoint at the return statement in form_valid and it doesn't get executed. Removing the dot in action has no effect. What the heck am I missing?

Answer 1

Is this is your whole views.py? It should like this:

class ScreeningCreate(CreateView):
    model = Screening
    form_class = ScreeningForm

    def form_valid(self, form):
        return super(ScreeningCreate, self).form_valid(form)
