I don't believe you can override that with a setting. Easiest option, if you really don't want the "blank=True"s everywhere, is to just extend each field class you intend to use: class MyCharField(models.CharField): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): if 'blank' not in kwargs: kwargs['blank'] = True Regards Scott -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
