Hi, I think in your view modulesView() you need to pass the project id to
ModuleForm:
..
else :
form = ModuleForm(projectid)
..
and then you need to overwrite the constructor of ModuleForm by adding an
__init__ function:
def __init__(self, projectid=None, *args, **kwargs):
super(ModuleForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
if projectid is not None:
self.fields['project'] = forms.ModelChoiceField(
...
queryset=Project.objects.filter(id=projectid)
)
something like that. --Antje
