python - Image Not Displaying From The Path That is Manually Saved to Another Model in Django -

i have 2 models imagefield. i using sorl-thumbnail generate thumbnail. first model has form binded while second gets imagefield populated first one, when saved.

models.py:

#the first model class newimage(models.model):     thumbnail = models.imagefield(upload_to='photos')     time_created = models.datetimefield() #second class users(models.model):     name = models.charfield(max_length=100)     address = models.charfield(max_length=200)     thumbnail = models.imagefield(upload_to='photos')     time_created = models.datetimefield() 

forms.py:

class imageform(forms.modelform):   class meta:     model = newimage     fields = {'thumbnail'} 

views.py:

def saveimage(request):     if request.method == 'post':       user = users.objects.get(id = 1)       imageform = imageform(request.post, request.files or none)         if imageform.is_valid():             upload_image = imageform.save(commit=false)             upload_image.time_created = timezone.now()             upload_image.save()             #save image path user uploaded it.             user.thumbnail = upload_image.thumbnail             user.save() 

if pass these templates: image = newimage.objects.get(id = 1) , user = users.objects.get(id = 1).

this displays image:

{% thumbnail image.thumbnail "200x100" crop="center" im %}     <img src="..{{ im.url }}" width="{{ im.width }}" height="{{ im.height }}"> {% endthumbnail %} 

but display square box:

{% thumbnail user.thumbnail "200x100" crop="center" im %}     <img src="..{{ im.url }}" width="{{ im.width }}" height="{{ im.height }}"> {% endthumbnail %} 

both images have link images sorl-thumbnail created in cache folder.

why happening , how can user.thumbnail displayed?

try this:

user.thumbnail = upload_image.thumbnail.name user.save() 

one more thing:

instead of doing upload_image.time_created = timezone.now() can change model include auto_now_add=true automatically save time_created time created. this:

class newimage(models.model):     thumbnail = models.imagefield(upload_to='photos')     time_created = models.datetimefield(auto_now_add=true) 

hope helps.
