Hello, I have 2 models: car and salesman. I want to make a form based off the car model. Salesman name is a foreign key in the car model. In the form, I want to be able to enter the salesman's name and if it doesn't exist already then create a new salesman.
So I have something like this in forms.py class Car(forms.ModelForm): salesman_name = forms.CharField() class Meta: model = Car But when I enter something into the salesman_name field it errors: Cannot assign "u'x'": "Salesman.name" must be a "Salesman" instance. How do I override that? So that it creates a new salesman when the entered one doesn't match a current one?
