Default values are *only* filled in when the field is displayed on an end-user form. If you don't want to display a field, but still automatically fill it in, you have two options: 1) Have your view code fill it in before doing manipulator validation 2) Set 'blank=True' for the field, and have the model's 'save' method fill in the current date and time if there's no value for it. -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
