Description (last modified by Claude Paroz)

Documentation (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/forms/fields/#decimalfield) states that max_decimal_places is a kwarg

File "/Users/paulkorir/Documents/Code/Python/Django/project-classified/project_classified/listings/forms.py", line 48, in AdvancedSearch
    price_minimum = forms.DecimalField(required=False, min_value=0, max_value=2, max_decimal_places=2)
  File "/Users/paulkorir/miniconda3/envs/project_classified/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/forms/fields.py", line 330, in __init__
    super().__init__(max_value=max_value, min_value=min_value, **kwargs)
  File "/Users/paulkorir/miniconda3/envs/project_classified/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/forms/fields.py", line 254, in __init__
    super().__init__(**kwargs)
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_decimal_places'

However, works with decimal_places instead of max_decimal_places

Please read the documentation once more, max_decimal_places is a key of the error messages dict, the kwarg is documented as being decimal_places.
