[@sudoscientist255]

@@bugbytes3923 Perfect lol. Literally started looking into formtools yesterday to implement product attributes like in django-oscar. Weirdly enough, same thing with htmx and the webcomponent related packages. Thanks for the great content! Learn more in every one of ur vids than hours of looking through SO, docs, source code, and asking gpt3

[@grant4458]

Excellent video as usual. Yes please to more form videos. Is it possible to have duplicate forms - lets say you have a list of goals, how would you dynamically add more goals to the wizard process? Would you create a new page for each goal or would you handle that on a single page? Probably a single page come to think of it. How would you handle that BugBytes?

[@FirdausAziz]

Always enjoyed your content. Kindly do something on the complete ecosystem: Django + HTMX (for AJAX) + HyperScript (for other dynamic aspects) + TailWind

[@bugbytes3923]

Thanks a lot! That's coming up before summer for sure.

[@rangabharath4253]

[@JustinSpryce]

Great lesson

[@bugbytes3923]

Thank you!

[@Schlumpfpirat]

Great video as always 👍🏼 Now in react please; seems much easier to handle in the backend! If you have to jump through that many hoops to make a simple Wizard in Django, I'd think it's the same effort to do it in React

[@bugbytes3923]

Thanks! I haven't done anything with React on the channel yet, but I guess it'll happen at some point... 😄

[@vivaldi-qo7xj]

thanks. its useful.

[@bugbytes3923]

[@Adroit931]

Good video ;) worth to add atomic transaction for db operations

[@bugbytes3923]

Thanks! And that's a very good point! The entire done() method should really be wrapped in a transaction.

[@victorjoseph5757]

nice work. For me, I'd rather stick to htmx than this. After watching your playlist on it, I'm so loving it

[@bugbytes3923]

Thank you!

[@garidodo272]

is it possible to present a single model into multi-step forms, say 3 forms for model Employee?

[@bugbytes3923]

Good question. Yes, this is possible, but you'll have to build three different Form subclasses (NOT ModelForms) and then combine the data at the end in the done() method.

Thank you for your work and everything you "return to the community". The niche which you found yourself is excellent - especially htmx helped me a lot. I started following you, when you had just over 3k followers. You well deserve the growth of your channel!

[@bugbytes3923]

Thanks a lot Adriano! Really appreciate that nice comment - glad the channel has helped!

[@hoschi60]

Btw. did you think of extending this tutorial with an htmx/modal tutorial? Or is that straight forward and easily implemented? Guess what I am working on right now 😂

[@juniorsemerzier660]

does it work with django-widget-tweaks?

[@bugbytes3923]

Yeah, for sure!

[@ToddPerrodin]

This is a great tutorial. Do you think this will work in an application that uses mulitforms?

[@bugbytes3923]

Thank you! I'll be honest, I'm not sure what multiforms are, really. The idea behind the wizard is to take multiple forms and submit them all in one staged workflow. Are multiforms similar to this?

[@ExcellentSports-w2k]

Hello sir, my form is not getting saved, done method is not working. Please help

[@bugbytes3923]

What code do you have in your done method?

[@Altar-of-God]

Hello! I have difficulty saving when I use the def done(self, form_list): function

[@israasalameh6879]

Hello, Great Tutorial ! especially I'm working on register wizard : my question is how to save user object based on all form_list ? I mean how to do something like this: user = form_list.save(commit=False)

[@seydinaoumarsamabaly1806]

Hey mate, here is my question : Can we have a different template for each form in the form Wizards with formtools (django-formtools) ? If yes, please make a tutorial to show us the usage thank you.

[@bugbytes3923]

Hey mate. Yes, for sure - you can have a template for each step in the form wizard. I'll try and create a short demo!

[@seydinaoumarsamabaly1806]

Thank you in advance my dear, I really need it.

[@luckykadewere5452]

what about using a drop down list within a wizard so that it should be having a different next page based on the option selected on the drop down list
