Question

Django should create a CharField which is for password input and this also should be displayed on the CharField:

In HTML: <input id="password" type="password" placeholder="Password" value="">

For a password CharField i use:

class AuthForm(forms.Form):
    username  = forms.CharField(label="Your Username" )
    pw = forms.CharField( widget=forms.PasswordInput(render_value=False), label="Your Password" )

For a placeholder i would use:

pw = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Password'}))

---

SOLUTION:

It seams that you don’t need (render_value=False), so the solution is:

forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Password'}))

Answer 1

copy-paste, according to request 😉

forms.CharField(widget=forms.PasswordInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Password'}))
