Django form.cleaned_data switches values between Form class choice fields
I am trying to filter a model’s objects dynamically depending on what the user selects in a form. The form allows selecting from two dropdown lists. Selecting from either dropdown is optional. If the user does not select anything and clicks Submit, there will be an empty search results page. I believe I didn’t do some things correctly. When I extract data from form.cleaned_data, when field_1 is only selected by the user, its value is assigned to field_2 and field_1 ends up being assigned the string “field_1”. Same for when only field_2 is selected. Why is it switching the value assignment and assigning the string name of each to itself?

Django Model Form, seems like there is an anomaly where my user creation form’s clean_username method is not throwing a ValidationError when it should

Similarly, I have a custom sign-up form that I’ve extended from UserCreationForm (all these custom items are extended from django.contrib.auth). The custom UserCreationForm I’ve made has a method called clean_username() that checks for usernames that do not have any alpha-numerical […]
Is there a way to insert a default field to each user’s ‘wincon’ model or lock the form field to a value based on another form field?
I am building a game tracker. I would like to have it where if the user selects anything other than ‘Win’ then the wincon field of the form is unchangeable or set to a default field. This is to make it easier to understand that when they don’t win they shouldn’t add a wincon. It would also be nice if the user had a blank field that if they didn’t want to input a wincon then it would default to ‘——‘
