How do I extend  a model and add some fields and social networking:
For example, I have a class called student:

class Student(models.Model):
     _name = 'student'

     name = fields.Char(string='name')

How do I extend this model to add new fields and social network feature?
My first try is something like this:

class StudentExtension(models.Model):
    _name = 'student'
    _inherit = ['student','mail.thread']

   form = fields.Char(string='Form')
   age = fields.Integer(string='Age')

My question is: Is this the right way to extend the student class? What effect does making the '_name' same as super class have? I tried to extend the Student class without including a _name and I keep getting an error. any help will be appreciated

Hi @Sehrish

My question was how do you extend the original class and add social network features to it? You only extended the class but did not show how to add the mail.thread feature to it.

class Student(models.Model):
 _inherit = 'student'
 # we inherited student model and created two new fields in that model.
 field_1 = fields.Char(required=True,string="Field One")
 field_2 = fields.Boolean(default=False,string="Field Two")
