I figured it out - you just have to overload the FormWizard method
parse_params, like so...
class CreateThingWizard(FormWizard):
def parse_params(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
current_step = self.determine_step(request, *args, **kwargs)
if request.method == 'GET' and current_step == 0:
# access the objects necessary - user and profile in my
case
user = request.user
profile = user.profile
# stuff the data into the appropriate initial dictionary
slot (self.initial[step_number])
self.initial[current_step] = {'post_code':
profile.post_code,
'telephone':
profile.telephone,}
Hopefully this will be helpful to anyone else who needs to do this -
or to me 6 months from now :)
