AjaxDeleteView doesn't do anything

[Alex-CodeLab]

my normal delete views are working, but when I add to the link
class="fm-delete" data-fm-head="Delete" data-fm-callback="reload"
and set my view to AjaxDeleteView , nothing happens.
I click the delete link, I see an empty modal window, but there isn't an ajax call to load the delete_confirm template. no error messages.

Other views are working fine (like AjaxUpdateView)

Hello, could you look at browser network console and show request and response headers and status code?

I think I found something: I had removed the "modal-buttons" in your template, and put some buttons in my own templates. This works fine for fm-update , since it loads the template/form in the modal window.
I tried using your "modal-buttons" again, they show up in the modal window (btw, no request being made for this) and I can click to delete.
When using fm-delete, there is no request to load a template/form. Usually there is a template_delete_confirmation.html being loaded, but not when using fm-delete.

this did the trick:
in fm.js,
function show_delete_modal(element) {
...
load_content(options); // add this

this is because of this https://github.com/FZambia/django-fm/blob/master/fm/static/fm/js/fm.js#L133

When you delete modal_buttons nothing triggers DELETE request, maybe using your own modal_buttons_selector can help?

No, that is not what I mean :)
it is not about submitting, but creating the modal/form.

As you can see in your demo, clicking Update creates a GET request to load the form content.
Clicking the Delete button does not trigger a GET to create the delete form, but this still works when using your template because it has buttons build in the template.
I use my own form templates so I can do some extra styling (and buttons), but it was never rendered in case of 'Delete'.

So, it is not actually a bug, just a situation that comes up when people want to style their own form.
I'll try to come up with a fork that allows to style the forms a bit .
(close this issue if you want)
