If you only want to change the widget type for a field you can just modify the form after creating it or do it in the __init__ method. This has the benefit of not having to repeat the label/required information in 2 places (model and form): #forms.py class EventForm(forms.ModelForm): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(EventForm, , self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.fields['endDate'].widget = DateTimeWidget() class Meta: model = Event -- Phil Davis --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
