ManyToManyField does not support validators. Is there a particular reason that ManyToManyField doesn't support validators? I would like to add a validator to require the user to select at least 3 options, but it seems the field simply doesn't run validators. I attempted to add one in like this: from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError def validate_three(value): if len(value) < 3: raise ValidationError("Must choose three related posts") BlogPost._meta.get_field('related_posts').validators.append(validate_three) But when it validates the field later, it says that self.validators == [] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
