'upload image in forms Django
I am trying to upload image from form but whenever I submit everything got saved in database other than image field.But when I try to do samething from admin panel it works.
models.py
class Post(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(("Title"), max_length=100)
title_image = models.ImageField(
("Title Image"),
upload_to='static/Images/TitleImages/',
max_length=None,
blank = True,null = True)
Forms.py
class AddPostForm(ModelForm):
class Meta:
model = Post
fields = ['title','title_image']
Views.py
class AddPostView(LoginRequiredMixin,CreateView):
model = Post
template_name = 'MainSite/add_post.html'
fields = '__all__'
def dispatch(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
if request.user.is_anonymous:
messages.error(request,"You need to login to access this page")
return redirect('/')
elif request.user.is_superuser:
if request.method == "POST":
form = AddPostForm(request.POST)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
messages.success(request,"POST added successfully")
return redirect('/')
else:
print("error")
else:
print("method is not post")
form = AddPostForm()
return render(request,'MainSite/add_post.html',{'form':form})
else :
messages.error(request,"You need to have superuser permission to access this page")
return redirect('/')
addpost.html
<form action= "" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.media }}
{{ form|crispy}}
<button class="btn btn-primary profile-button" style = "width:150px;"type="submit" >Add Post</button></div>
</form>
my model have 2 things title and title_image but whenever I submit only title is saved and when I do through admin panel it works.
I dont know what I am doing wrong here any advice will be helpful.

You've to pass request.FILES in order to save files
if request.method == "POST":
form = AddPostForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
form.save()
messages.success(request,"POST added successfully")
return redirect('/')
