finally after 5 videos someone that explains everything clearly!

[@Codemycom]

Glad you liked it!

[@rauldinho]

I'm a simple man. I see a new Codemy video, I like, watch, learn and practice. lol

[@Codemycom]

You rock!

[@francislachapelle123]

Just started Flask at my job for a project, and your videos are clear and very instructives. Good job man.

[@Codemycom]

Glad I could help!

[@tradingoptions]

2023: [Bug Fix] You need to add {{ form.csrf_token }} before or after this line {{ form.hidden_tag() }} on the name.html page. Else if form.validate_on_submit() == False This is a great series of videos. Thanks!

[@pmatoss]

I have no words to describe my gratitude for this series of videos. In addition to being extremely educational and educational, they are so realistic that I am applying them to an educational project that I am developing with a group of friends. Thank you very much for the great work. Greetings from Brazil.

[@Codemycom]

You're very welcome!

[@articulation7]

What a series of the videos! Thanks for that amount of work! Very cool Cheers

[@Codemycom]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alicherifi9075]

Best Fridays, are Flask Fridays

[@Codemycom]

Yes!

[@mehboob_pythonist]

Amazing lecture sir... Please keep uploading new updated videos on flask. you sre the best mentor

[@Codemycom]

There are many more flask videos in this playlist

[@UGLi]

Hi, I LOVE your tutorials, they are 100% on point. I'll keep on studying them with pleasure. Just a note : at 7:02, you say DataRequired() is a function, it seems to be an instance of the DataRequired class. It's only a detail but before running the code without the (), and reading the traceback, I was a bit lost :).

[@lukagajinov232]

Great video, very good and quick explanation. Thanks!

[@Codemycom]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TorstenFelder-bn2ez]

Again, an outstanding tutorial- excellent! Question: How would one make the information submitted by one of several forms available for use in all python methods in a Flask project?

[@nerminqulu]

I like you are smile everytime when you saying WTF

[@Codemycom]

haha

[@rchocano]

Great video, very good explanation. Thank you!

[@Codemycom]

Thanks!

[@expressionamidstcacophony390]

This is one of those cases where youtube videos are more helpful documentation than the actual documentation. Dear oh dear.

[@Codemycom]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@GIULI4994]

very good tutorial, thanks

[@Codemycom]

Welcome

[@david2358]

excellent video, just subscribed!!!

[@Codemycom]

Awesome!

[@hiwab41]

I like before seeing your vids! Because i know it gonna be so good -:)

[@Codemycom]

Wow, thanks!

[@sachinsinghal13]

Me too

[@ahmadfaisal6356]

I'm too

[@Darkev77]

As usual, clear and concise. Anyone know why I should use wtforms over typical html input tags with specified types (email, password, etc.) and properties (required, title, etc.)?

[@AwesomelyAwesomeKidd]

He explains alittle in the start, basically because you can use wtforms for uploading files and images

[@likbezlik]

I looked at many Flask tutorials and yours is the only one that helped me find a solution to this simple form. Took me a few hours to fix some bugs though. I was very confused with the attributes that we have to pass to the render_template "name=name" and "form=form". What exactly does this part do in the code?

[@Codemycom]

passes the name and the form

[@demasjaring5435]

verry nice explaination ,thx!

[@Codemycom]

Glad it was helpful!

[@andrewsweeney1653]

Is there a tutorial for adding 1. Date time picker to the form? 2. Multi select dropdowns?

[@Codemycom]

I don't think so, but you could have checked the playlist faster than it took to ask :-p

[@SZGSports]

If I wanted to pre populate the form, how would I pass the string?

[@radiagulzan]

Hey, thank you for the videos! I had the same problem as Patrick. The page doesn't follow the IF condition so doesn't respond back despite reloading. Do you have any idea why this might be happening?

[@marymozaffari2963]

Hi John in 16:19 my code has problem with submit button did you change the code when you run it?

[@Codemycom]

Did I change the code? You see exactly what I do in the video.

[@marymozaffari2963]

Thank you for reply exactly you didn't and I was studying your code step by step but when I want to run it, It has problem with submit button here is the error: jinja2.exceptions.UndefinedError: '__main__.NamerForm object' has no attribute 'submit'

[@Codemycom]

@@marymozaffari2963 You'll have to rewatch the video and retrace your steps to see what you did wrong.

[@patmower46]

John, I must've missed something. Everything works with one exception: When I put a name in the name page, press submit, the name goes away, but the page and name are NOT redisplayed. I know I have missed something....but what?!

[@Codemycom]

I couldn't guess...rewatch the videos and try again :-)

[@source_thought]

Same here

[@brianbwoma9947]

@@source_thought i think its something to do with the crsf token

[@radiagulzan]

same!

[@radiagulzan]

could you solve it? I rewatched and did everything but it is still unresponsive

[@koslockwood]

Can you recommend any resources on more complex form use? I'd like to better understand passing data back to the python script and ideally creating dynamic forms: essentially my goal is to have a list of objects pulled from a database via API (i've got this working) have the list of objects printed as selectable items in a form, and have the form return a list of objects that were selected for additional processing to be done against.

[@Codemycom]

I have lots of videos on forms...but there really isn't much more to them.

[@stephontidd7051]

cant get bootstrap to reflect changes in name.html EX: {{ form.name.label( class = "form-label" ) }} doesnt change the look

[@seacook42]

Hi John, I've just come back to Flask Fridays and find that this segment is outdated. FlaskForm is no longer supported by wtf. Any chance of an update for this segment?

[@Codemycom]

Of course it's still supported...why would you think that it wasn't?

[@BenMrMakinesiyim]

aaaaahhh it's a hard framework to learn. Soooo many methods and references in there. But thank you anyways for every detail.

[@Codemycom]

Yeah definitely a little harder than Django

[@asce313]

👍 🔥🔥

[@Codemycom]

:-)

[@wirrexx]

Love what you are doing. However, I got an error pip install flask-wtf on windows. as It continue to say that the module is missing. However, I can see it in my requirements on pip freeze. Confusing

[@Codemycom]

If it's listed in the requirements, than it's installed. If some module is missing, pip install that module.

[@wirrexx]

@@Codemycom fixed it. I had to build a new system In sublime and make sure that the path was in my virtual environment python.exe

[@salmantas2335]

in case of is there any one wondering how to change button text other than submit: just pass what you want into the SubmitField that you created in your class. for example: submit = SubmitField('sometext')

[@devansh8095]

Sir is it bad to convert kivy file into exe with pyinstaller?

[@Codemycom]

Maybe you should ask that question under the video I did in the kivy playlist showing how to convert a kivy file into exe with pyinstaller...

[@devansh8095]

@@Codemycom yes sir that's make sense but now my doubt is clr

[@Yanis0071]

Hello ! How can we prevent duplicate form submissions using the POST?

[@Codemycom]

It does it by default. If someone hit's reload they are prompted by a form re-submission popup

[@jamikemichelohia2615]

Just came to check WTF wasnt what i thought it was. Jokes aside. great Job

[@Codemycom]

Haha

[@aditya.21]

Could anyone help me to hide the secret key using .gitignore , it happens somewhere around @ 6:00 in the video

[@danielruzicka3858]

is it possible to do the python logic not in the html file but in already in the backed python file ?

[@Codemycom]

Sure, you can use python however you want on the backend.

[@paulbrugger9610]

When you install new packages make sure you are in the virtual environment and not in another terminal that is not in the ve.

[@Codemycom]

Yep

[@abdullahhazari918]

I love you men !

[@Codemycom]

Thanks!

[@gtasawstudio5010]

Good. I very like you ;)

Thanks! 😃

[@alexi2706]

I am getting 'tuple' object is not callable

[@Codemycom]

What did you do differently from the video?

[@denisgarden1]

Where can find the code?

[@Codemycom]

in the pinned comment, like I said in the video.

[@orick08]

When I submit the form I get the 404 error page

[@orick08]

I had action="POST" instead of method="POST" on the form, careful with the VSCode

[@Codemycom]

@@orick08 glad you got it sorted out

[@MagicByIzzy]

Hi John i love your videos! Can you please do a video on pymongo and flask especially on storing images in a mongo db database?

[@Codemycom]

Yeah I might get to that in the future

[@MagicByIzzy]

@@Codemycom i would really appreciate that! Thanks
