In the Admin I would like to provide the user with checkboxes against a list of options not stored in the database.

Specifically, I want to retrieve a comma separated list of integers from a model field choices attribute. The model field looks like this:

    menu_links = models.CharField(max_length=LARGE, blank=True,         choices=MENU_LINKS,         default='',         validators=[int_list_validator],         verbose_name='Menu data links',         help_text="These selections control which URLs are displayed in the " "'Substances and mixtures' menu",     )

I'm seeing two problems.

One is getting such a widget to appear in an admin.StackedInline class.

Two is creating the data in the above models.CharField from choices=MENU_LINKS

Here it is ...

MENU_LINKS = [     (1, "ChemIDplus"),     (2, "ChemSpider"),     (3, "NIST Webbook"), ]


In the admin I have tried

class ProfileFilteredSelectMultiple(admin.widgets.FilteredSelectMultiple):

    def __init__(self, verbose_name='Menu links', is_stacked=False, *args, **kwargs):         args += (verbose_name,)         args += (is_stacked,)         super(ProfileFilteredSelectMultiple, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)


Then in the nested StackedInline class ...

    class CompanyProfileInline(admin.StackedInline):

        model = CompanyProfile         formfield_overrides = {             CharField: {'widget': ProfileFilteredSelectMultiple},         }         readonly_fields = (('modified', 'modified_by',))         fieldsets = (             ('More detail for company profile', {                 'classes': ('collapse', 'wider'),                 'fields': (                      'menu_links',                      ...

Any hints or pointers will be appreciated.

Thanks

Mike
