Proper way to handle multiple forms on one page in Django

Question

I have a template page expecting two forms. If I just use one form, things are fine as in this typical example:

if request.method == \'POST\':
    form = Au         


        

Answer 1

A method for future reference is something like this. bannedphraseform is the first form and expectedphraseform is the second. If the first one is hit, the second one is skipped (which is a reasonable assumption in this case):

if request.method == 'POST':
    bannedphraseform = BannedPhraseForm(request.POST, prefix='banned')
    if bannedphraseform.is_valid():
        bannedphraseform.save()
else:
    bannedphraseform = BannedPhraseForm(prefix='banned')

if request.method == 'POST' and not bannedphraseform.is_valid():
    expectedphraseform = ExpectedPhraseForm(request.POST, prefix='expected')
    bannedphraseform = BannedPhraseForm(prefix='banned')
    if expectedphraseform.is_valid():
        expectedphraseform.save()

else:
    expectedphraseform = ExpectedPhraseForm(prefix='expected')
