Hi, I was trying to create an m2m relationship using the 'through' parameter because I want to have an additional field in the relation table. The idea was to render this using CheckboxSelectMultiple.
The thing is that when I add the model m2m field to the 'fieldset' field at the ModelForm it throws an exception : 'HomeAdmin.fieldsets[4][1]['fields']' can't include the ManyToManyField field 'attributes' because 'attributes' manually specifies a 'through' model. Apparently this is a BUG pointed out here : https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/django-users/nWpb0RjoTJ0%5B1-25%5D Basically if you use the 'through' parameter to use a relation table that contains an extra field/s you can't render it using a CheckboxSelectMultple widget, not even if the extra field allows null values. I thought of fixing it this way (a nasty hack) : class A(models.Model): . . foos = models.ManyToManyField('Foo') class Foo(models.Model): name = CharField And here comes the nasssty class FooRelationshipValue(models.Model): a = ForeingKey(A) foo = ForeingKey(Foo) value = DateField Here I can store the value for the relationship when saving the Model in the DB. If anyone has a better solution, suggestion, comment or thinks this is going to make me rot in hell please let me know.
