We are working on a student project at our uni and we have to work with Plone and Dexterity content types.
We created a custom content type and are now trying to create a custom edit form for it. However, we don't seem be able to save anything we enter on the edit form to the Object itself.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
xmlns:tal="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/tal"
xmlns:metal="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/metal"
xmlns:i18n="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/i18n"
lang="en"
metal:use-macro="context/main_template/macros/master"
i18n:domain="pacs.content">
<body>
<metal:main fill-slot="main">
<metal:main define-macro="main"
tal:define="currentSelection view/selected_org_unit">
<div tal:replace="structure provider:plone.abovecontenttitle" />
<h1 class="documentFirstHeading" tal:content="context/title" />
<div tal:replace="structure provider:plone.belowcontenttitle" />
<p class="documentDescription" tal:content="context/shortname" />
<div tal:replace="structure provider:plone.abovecontentbody" />
<div tal:content="structure context/projectnr" />
<div>
<fieldset style="border:1px #000 solid">
<legend>Bereichszuordnung</legend>
<select name="org_unit" size="1">
<option value="">Bitte auswählen</option>
<option
tal:repeat="code view/org_units"
tal:attributes="value code;
selected python:currentSelection == code and 'selected' or None"
tal:content="code"
/>
</select>
</fieldset>
</div>
<div tal:content="structure context/org_unit" />
<div tal:content="structure context/project_head" />
<div tal:content="structure context/confidential" />
<input id="form-buttons-save"
name="form.buttons.save" class="submit-widget button-field context" value="Save" type="submit" />
<div tal:replace="structure provider:plone.belowcontentbody" />
<div metal:use-macro="context/batch_macros/macros/navigation" />
</metal:main>
</metal:main>
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer and I will gladly upload any relevant code.

Are you registering the edit form?
class EditForm(dexterity.EditForm):
grok.context(IYourContentType)
Take a look at Custom add and edit forms for more information.
