one to one - ModelForm with OneToOneField in Django

Question

I have two models in Django that are related with a OneToOneField (PrinterProfile and PrinterAdress). I am trying to do a form with PrinterProfileForm, but for some reason it does NOT pass the PrinterAddress fields into the form (it's not rendered by Django "magic" in the template).

What should I do so that my PrinterProfileForm include as well the fields from PrinterAddress (its related OneToOneField)?

Thanks a lot

class PrinterProfile(TimeStampedModel):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User)
    phone_number = models.CharField(max_length=120, null=False, blank=False)
    additional_notes = models.TextField()
    delivery = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    pickup = models.BooleanField(default=True)


# The main address of the profile, it will be where are located all the printers.    
class PrinterAddress(TimeStampedModel):
    printer_profile = models.OneToOneField(PrinterProfile)
    formatted_address = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=True)
    latitude = models.DecimalField(max_digits=25, decimal_places=20)  # NEED TO CHECK HERE THE PRECISION NEEDED.
    longitude = models.DecimalField(max_digits=25, decimal_places=20)  # NEED TO CHECK HERE THE PRECISION NEEDED.
    point = models.PointField(srid=4326)

    def __unicode__(self, ):
        return self.user.username

class PrinterProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = PrinterProfile
        exclude = ['user']

You have to create second form for PrinterAddress and handle both forms in you view:

if all((profile_form.is_valid(), address_form.is_valid())):
    profile = profile_form.save()
    address = address_form.save(commit=False)
    address.printer_profile = profile
    address.save()

Of course in the template you need to show both forms under one <form> tag :-)

<form action="" method="post">
    {% csrf_token %}
    {{ profile_form }}
    {{ address_form }}
</form>
