Whenever i tried to view other people profile, it always return my own profile again, i don't really know what's wrong and i have tried calling request.user but it seems not to work
views.py
def UserProfile(request, username):
user = get_object_or_404(User, username=username)
profile = Profile.objects.get(user=user)
url_name = resolve(request.path).url_name
context = {
'profile':profile,
'url_name':url_name,
}
return render(request, 'userauths/profile.html', context)
urls.py main project
from userauths.views import UserProfile
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('users/', include('userauths.urls')),
path('<username>/', UserProfile, name='profile'),
]
index.html
{% for creator in creators %}
<a href="{% url 'profile' creator.user %}"><img src="{{creator.user.profile.image.url}}" alt="creators image" ></a></div>
<h5 ><a href="{% url 'profile' creator.user %}">
{{creator.user.profile.first_name}} {{creator.user.profile.last_name}} {% if creator.verified %} <i ></i> {% else %}{% endif %} </a></h5>
<p >{{creator.user.profile.bio}}</p></div>
{% endfor %}

I just fixed it now, in my profile.html, i am using {{request.user.profile.first_name}} to display the informations. I was supposed to use {{profile.first_name}} etc, and that was it
Thanks to everyone who helped
CodePudding user response:
Instead of this:
<a href="{% url 'profile' creator.user %}">
you should try:
<a href="{% url 'profile' creator.user.username %}">
From the presumably working statement get_object_or_404(User, username=username) I assume that username is a field (hopefully, unique) of the User. So you should pass it onto the URL, not the entire User model.
