You cannot do this using only django, since django is by nature synchronous ( in layman's language it means that whenever you want to send/fetch data from the server your webpage will reload). So, you need to use asynchronous technologies like AJAX [LINK] . One way to accomplish what you are trying to do is by building a restful API service only for registration ( using django rest framework [LINK] ). Then you can use Ajax to make asynchronous calls to your rest API. You can checkout this really nice tutorial video by Dennis Ivy for more details on implementation [this video] . PS: Ideally people use a frontend framework like React to make all API calls and they make a separate backend using drf,

I haven't found any solutions for this. On implementing the same method for completed_Items I was able to achieve on bot

So i was following this tutorial [this video] , with different approach of mine ( instead of being a to do app, I'm trying to make it a clinic management system ). So the problem I'm facing is that my api is receiving data, and there is no errors plus I'm getting 200 status code from the local server which means everything is okay, but its not hence the data isn't being stored in the DB for some reason. this is the code: models.py class Employee(models.Model): fullname = models.CharField(max_length = 250) age = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True) gender = models.CharField(max_length=10, choices=(('Male', 'Male'), ('Female', 'Female')), default='Male') usertype = models.CharField(max_length =
