Answer 1

I think this is because cannot find the file key in the request.Post .
Python dictionaries have an integrated static method .get() . When .get() cannot find a key, it returns the default None value or the value you specified.
I suggest using .get() . Here is an example.
Change the settings of the program
request.POST[""]
to
request.POST.get("", "default value")
In addition, there is no need to write {% csrf_token %} before each input field. For each form only one csrf_token is required. Thus, you can remove others, just store one inside the form tag.
