I'm creating new users+profiles from a form class. The form gets instantiated by a view. I'd like to save the request.META header along with the profile so I need to pass it from the view to the form. The form constructor takes the keyword argument data. Is there anyway I can pass along my

Actually, I spoke too soon on this one. My original solution doesn't work because the hidden input on the form doesn't have a value, so the form won't validate. I fixed this by just adding display: none to the widget attrs in the __init__ instead of changing the widget to a HiddenInput. Now

request.GET.get('subtopic') is returning a string, so your if statement is roughly equivalent to: >>> 1 == '1' False The sub_topic = int(request.GET.get('subtopic')) is the correct way to do that. At first glance it seems like a lot of work, but if Django tried to deserialize URL params
