A Change Password form that asks the user for the old password and checks the two new passwords.
Whenever you instantiate the form you must pass a User object to it. ex. theform = forms.PasswordReset(request.user,request.POST)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 | class PasswordReset(forms.Form):
oldpassword = forms.CharField(widget=PasswordInput())
password1 = forms.CharField(widget=PasswordInput())
password2 = forms.CharField(widget=PasswordInput())
def __init__(self, user, *args, **kwargs):
self.user = user
super(PasswordReset, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
def clean_oldpassword(self):
if self.clean_data.get('oldpassword') and not self.user.check_password(self.clean_data['oldpassword']):
raise ValidationError('Please type your current password.')
return self.clean_data['oldpassword']
def clean_password2(self):
if self.clean_data.get('password1') and self.clean_data.get('password2') and self.clean_data['password1'] != self.clean_data['password2']:
raise ValidationError('The new passwords are not the same')
return self.clean_data['password2']

How to clear the three password fields when re-displaying the form after either a successful or unsuccessful POST?
I don't think it's a good idea to echo back the old and new passwords in the form as field values.
