hello,
i have a mini app where users can login, view their profile, and follow each other.
'Follow' is a relation like a regular 'friend' relationship in virtual communities, but it is not necessarily reciprocal, meaning that one can follow a user, without the need that the user to be following back that person who follows him.
my problem is:
if i am a logged in user, and i navigate to a profile X, and push the button follow, how can i take the current profile id ?(current profile meaning the profile that I, the logged in user, am viewing right now.)
the view:
def follow(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
form = FollowForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
new_obj = form.save(commit=False)
new_obj.initiated_by = request.user
u = User.objects. what here?
new_obj.follow = u
new_obj.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('.')
else:
form = FollowForm()
return render_to_response('followme/follow.html', {
'form': form,
},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
thanks in advance!
