Re: how to add a non-field text property to forms in a formset

I am so dense sometimes... I had forgotten that initial data in a formset is a *list* of dictionaries. So I set up the initial data in a loop over the available products, and created a parallel list of product_descriptions in the same loop. Then set up the formset, and looped over formset.forms

Re: how to add a non-field text property to forms in a formset

Bill, thanks a ton for the conversation. I will try some variations of that set of ideas over the weekend and report back here with what works. And you are correct, I am not now creating the formset forms in a loop, but might try that as one variation. -Bob -- You received this message

custom vocabularies vs translation
