Hi Jamesie, I understand what you want, and I agree, in essence, that the fields should just be useable out of the box. I was just providing an alternative suggestion to creating a whole new fork of Django and if not that, at least some inspiration for what you want to include in that fork. --Matthew
-----Original Message----- From: django-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:django-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jamesie Pic Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2017 9:03 AM To: django-users@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Django forks Hi all, Those of you who use some of my apps know that I don't put inline javascript code ever in fields, for the reason that it's known to slow page rendering. Also, it isn't known to help maintainability nor re-usability. That Django provides this as the only way does not invalidates that. Also, overriding default form fields (and of course, classes) all the time just because I want something that's /usable/, is not acceptable in my logic. If I have to override something it should be to "add value", not "make it usable". I'm sorry but it looks like you don't understand me so I try to repeat myself but it might not work either :D I already know how to customize Django forms, as stated earlier, I'm the author of django-autocomplete-light and have maintained and supported it for the past 5 years for the community for free, for sports. My requirement is: I want form fields to be usable out of the box, without having to override the form class everywhere in the world (admin, drf, django-filters, and so on) just because I want usable fields.
