I may not be clear on what you are trying to accomplish, but maybe something like
class Form1(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model=Model def type_one_fields(self): return [self.fields['a']] # Or use whatever criteria you want for type_one fields. def type_two_fields(self): return [self.fields['b']] def type_three_fields(self): return [self.fields['c']] {% for field in form.type_one_fields %}{{field}}{% endfor %} I don't think the model is where you'd want to do any form/display stuff. It would be best kept on the form, or as a template tag. If you are trying to make a 'generic' configuration such as putting all text fields in one section, fks in another, etc... you could make a filter: {% for field in form|field_type:"text" %}{{field}}{% endif %} {% for field in form|field_type:"foreignkey" %}{{field}}{% endif %} The filter would have to be smart enough to inspect the form variable and pick the right fields either by widget, checking a mapping on the model, or some other criteria that fits exactly what you are trying to do. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
