Why won't Django render its select widget with this code
  • I am trying to use Django's default select widget to render an html dropdown and I just can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong...
  • in my **models.py**:
  • `
  • > class VehicleYear(TimeStampedModel):
  • oem_year = models.IntegerField(
  • unique=True, null=False, blank=False, default=current_year, validators=[
  • MinValueValidator(1900), max_value_current_year])
  • `
  • in my **forms.py**:
  • > class SelectYear(forms.Form):
  • vehicle_year = forms.ModelChoiceField(queryset=VehicleYear.objects.all(), label="Select Year")
  • in my **views.py**:
  • > def Year(request):
  • context = {'form': SelectYear()}
  • return render(request, 'vehicles/select_year.html', context)
  • in my html template(**select_year.html**):
  • > {{ form.as_p }}
  • select_year.html is part of select_filter.html and is using
  • {% include "folder/select_year.html" %}

  • `{% include "folder/select_year.html" %}`
