Thank you for the quick response Sum. I am still unsure about the usage of
ModelForm, do I need to specify somewhere that the CreateView should use the
ModelForm I define instead of the default form?
Where am I supposed to declare the 'class Formname...' ? (Is this supposed to
be done in the models.py file or in the forms.py file?)
Previously you meant the forms.py file right ? (not 'form.py')
The fields list is supposed to be in [] and not in () right?
Why doesn't the default form, that is automatically generated from the model
when one uses the CreateView class based view , include the correct widgets?
thanks again,
