Hi, I've been struggling with this for the past two weeks, and i think it's time to ask.
I have and admin form that has a ModelMultipleChoiceField that is used to display a ManyToMany model field that specifies a through model class Person(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=10) attributes = models.ManyToManyField('Attribute',through='Has', blank=True, null=True) class Has(models.Model): person = models.ForeignKey('Person') attribute = models.ForeignKey('Attribute') value = models.CharField(max_length=10) class Attribute(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=10) atype = models.CharField(max_length=2, choices=(('TF','true/false'), ('IN','text'))) class PersonAdminForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = Person attrs = forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField( \ label='Attributes', queryset=Attribute.objects.all(), widget=forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple(), ) This CheckboxSelectMultiple works fine, but I want to be able to render each relation according to the Attribute.atype value, meaning if it is TF, then tender it as a CheckBox, if it is IN the render it as an InputText I inherited from CheckboxSelectMultiple so it does that, but then when I'm on the admin form and for one specific attribute of type IN, rendered as a TextInput, I set a value (let's say 500) and then press save , the method SelectMultiple.value_from_datadict gets called and passed as data : <QueryDict: {u'csrfmiddlewaretoken': [u'GWLnuoTSTjjLmpYOizodBA4VA1FmwdQw'], u'_continue': [u'Save and continue editing'], u'name': [u'nico'], u'attrs': [ u'2']}> And this is what has been driving me nuts! u'attrs': [ u'2'], As you can see it only passes the id of the attribute, not the id and the value. What I need is something like u'attrs': [ (u'2','500')], Any ideas on how to fix this ?
