Perhaps if you posted more of your code someone could help. In this thread
at any rate all I see is a single line of code that presumably defines the
field you are talking about in your model? A model with a field as you have
defined it does behave the way you seem to be requesting. Specifically, this
model:
class BField(models.Model):
x = models.BooleanField(default=False)
def __unicode__(self):
return '%s' % self.x
and a bare-bones model form created for it:
>>> from ttt.models import BField
>>> from django import forms
>>> class BForm(forms.ModelForm):
... class Meta:
... model = BField
...
when created with an empty data dictionary:
>>> bf = BForm({})
...is reported as valid and has no errors:
>>> bf.is_valid()
True
>>> bf.errors
{}
...and successfully saves, creating a model instance with the specified
default:
>>> BField.objects.all()
[]
>>> bf.save()
<BField: False>
>>> BField.objects.all()
[<BField: False>]
>>>
