hi,
I upgraded Django from 1.8 to 1.11, in the last month and we have now a
bug that the empty choice is always selected on initial page load and
leads to confusion. If I deselect and select the value it work like
intended.
It seems for me that there is no
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/1.11.11/django/forms/widgets.py#L591
check] if something was already selected or if it be a fresh form. Like it
was in
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/1.8.19/django/forms/widgets.py#L523
1.8] in `selected_choices`
I think this report also apply to the `ModelMultipleChoiceField`
e.g.
{{{
#!div style="font-size: 80%"
Code highlighting:
{{{#!python
choices = [(u'', '(no extra)'), (u'cheese', u'Cheese'), (u'Pepper',
u'Pepper')]
extra_topics = forms.MultipleChoiceField(required=False,
choices=choices)
}}}
}}}
