try something like this in the view form = BikeForm() form.fields[“made_at”].queryset = Factory.objects.filter(user__factory) modify the Factory queryset so that it identifies the factory which the user works at.
It should be model instead of Model (and without the trailing `, but I guess that’s a typo): class PickForm(ModelForm): class Meta: model = Car
From the documentation: You can specify the labels, help_texts and error_messages attributes of the inner Meta class if you want to further customize a field. There are examples just below that section of the docs. So, you can do: class Meta: model = Post labels = { “video”: “Embed” }

I solved this same problem by overriding the validate_unique() method of the ModelForm: def validate_unique(self): exclude = self._get_validation_exclusions() exclude.remove(‘problem’) # allow checking against the missing attribute try: self.instance.validate_unique(exclude=exclude) except ValidationError, e: self._update_errors(e.message_dict) Now I just always make sure that the attribute not provided on the form is still available, e.g. instance=Solution(problem=some_problem) on the initializer.
