Re: Extending the ManyToMany relation, maybe a bad idea

My problem is that I have multiple values and I need to associate the list of extra fields with selected relations for the ManyToMany relation. Below is a simplified version of what my setup is. I want to create an edit form for Organization, but I'm struggling with how best to save (and

Re: Extending the ManyToMany relation, maybe a bad idea

Ok, so I can retrieve this extra data in the __init__ of the model form, but it seems like I will need to skip all of the cleaning and automatic validation of the form; because the data, to be displayed with the associated checkbox will have to be included with the items field in the

Re: Extending the ManyToMany relation, maybe a bad idea

Ya, sorry, I was just getting frustrated because I was taking longer than I wanted to implement this. The formset is what I ended up with. The tricky part is still that I want a defined list of options in the formset, so I can't just make it a model formset. I haven't worked in Django in a

Best practice when testing form values in a template?

Ok, so I've created a fairly simple form: class OrganizationItemForm(AuditModelForm): selected = forms.BooleanField() extraRequired = forms.BooleanField(widget=forms.HiddenInput) multiLineInfo = forms.BooleanField(widget=forms.HiddenInput) def __init__(self, *args,

Re: Best practice when testing form values in a template?

Ok, I apologize. Here is a fuller representation of what I'm doing. I had a hard time figuring out how much was enough versus too much. This is simplified, but I think it represents what I'm trying to do. For instance, don't pay too much attention to the save logic in the view, I haven't

How to test form values in a template? (simplified)

I realize that I went from too little information, to too much information in the previous post, so this is an attempt to find a middle ground. What I'm building is the ability to have a list of checkable options, and depending on the setup for a give option it may have a text field to enter

Re: How to test form values in a template? (simplified)

It's more that I want to have different ways of displaying the same form field. I want the text field to be on the same line as the checkbox when it's an input field and below it when it's displayed as a textarea. There's also the point of changing the required setting of the same field based

How to prevent model formset from saving the empty forms?

I have a model formset that's displaying an extra form, but when I save I always get that form saved as an empty entry. How do I tell it not to save the model forms that I don't edit? It doesn't happen this way in the admin, does it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to

Re: How to prevent model formset from saving the empty forms?

Ok, I figured out why, but I still don't know how to fix it. I set a dropdown to empty_label = None, which automatically selects the first element. I want that, but the form then thinks it has changed because the value in the list of initial values is empty for that field, and I can't see how

Re: Best approach to handling different types of Users

Things will break in the sense that, if you add another app that accesses the User model they will only see the original implementation. They won't get your subclass. Other than that, other apps that use the User model should "work" just fine. Unless I'm missing something, and in that case
