[FIXED] Editing Django _form.as_p

Issue

By default _form.as._p spits out:

<p><label for="id_subject">Subject:</label>
    <input id="id_subject" type="text" name="subject" maxlength="100" /></p>

Whereas I need

 <p><label for="id_subject">Subject:</label><p>
    <input id="id_subject" type="text" name="subject" maxlength="100" /></p>

with a break between the label and the input. How can I modify my Django code to do so?

Solution

You simply just can't use form.as_p anymore. If the defaults don't work for you, then you must render the fields manually:

<form action="/contact/" method="post">
    {% for field in form %}
        <div class="fieldWrapper">
            {{ field.errors }}
            {{ field.label_tag }}: {{ field }}
        </div>
    {% endfor %}
    <p><input type="submit" value="Send message" /></p>
</form>
