Re: limit number of related instance for m2m field in django-admin
You could customize the Admin Book Creation Form's save() method to check for X number of books an author already has. Note: I have very limited experience customizing the Admin application and have only used this method through a normal Form.

hi is there any way to limit the number of instances that can be attached to a m2m field. e.g author = models.manytomany(Book) i want to limit the max number of book objects that can be attached to author.
