Error Text#
from wtforms import TextField
>> ImportError: cannot import name 'TextField' from 'wtforms'
The above error occurs when the TextField property is used with [WTForms](https://pypi.org/project/WTForms/) version 3.0 or above because the wtforms.TextField deprecated in favor of wtforms.StringField.
Solution 1#
Replace TextField type with StringField. This solution works with WTForms 3.x and 2.x versions
from wtforms import StringField
// replace all TextField usages with StringField type
Solution 2#
Use the latest stable 2.x version of WTForms
// Use 2.x version
pip install WTForms==2.3.3
Using an older version provides a quick fix for your codebase but is not recommended in the long run.
