You will need to make an admin.py and follow these directions
class FormAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
prepopulated_fields = {"slug": ("title",)}
slug can be what ever field you want to populate and title is where you are
populating from, as far as I know you can only populate from within the same
area.
then you need to register form and formadmin
admin.site.register(form, formadmin)
