Django - Allow User to Edit Profile and then Show Updated Profile fields - django-forms

Question

I have the form populating with the user profile information, but when I click save, it doesn't actually update.
Any clues/hints as to which part I need to modify is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
views.py
def profile_view(request):
user = request.user
form = EditProfileForm(initial={'first_name':user.first_name, 'last_name':user.last_name})
context = {
"form": form
}
return render(request, 'profile.html', context)
def edit_profile(request):
user = request.user
form = EditProfileForm(request.POST or None, initial={'first_name':user.first_name, 'last_name':user.last_name})
if request.method == 'POST':
if form.is_valid():
user.first_name = request.POST['first_name']
user.last_name = request.POST['last_name']
user.save()
return HttpResponseRedirect('%s'%(reverse('profile')))
context = {
"form": form
}
return render(request, "edit_profile.html", context)
forms.py
class EditProfileForm(forms.ModelForm):
first_name = forms.CharField(label='First Name')
last_name = forms.CharField(label='Last Name')
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ['first_name', 'last_name']
edit_profile.html
{% extends "base_site.html" %}
{% block content %}
<h1>Edit Profile</h1>
<form method="POST" action="/accounts/profile/" class="" />
{% csrf_token %}
{{ form.as_p }}
<button type="submit">Save</button>
</form>
{% endblock %}

The action in your form is POSTing to profile_view and not edit_profile and your forms are self closing so they aren't being POSTed correctly.
Change this:
<form method="POST" action="/accounts/profile/" class="" />
To this:
<form method="POST" action="/accounts/profile/edit" class="" >
Or even better, use the django url template tag:
<form method="POST" action="{% url 'edit_profile' %}" class="" >
