Problem: Actually the only thing thats stops me from using {{ form }} is the incapability to change classes for labels easily. So i have to do it like this, for every form and every field: {{{ {{ form.non_field_errors }} <div class="fieldWrapper"> {{ form.subject.errors }} <label for="{{ form.subject.id_for_label }}" class="MY-CUSTOM- CLASS">Email subject:</label> {{ form.subject }} </div> }}} Where it should be changed: I would be fine if the label_attrs could be set in BaseForm(), but i think the right place would be class Field As the label_tag is already set up to give the label class attributes and label_suffix, it is quite easy to add this to the BaseForm _html_output() {{{ class BoundField: def label_tag(self, contents=None, attrs=None, label_suffix=None): }}} {{{ class BaseForm: def _html_output(self, normal_row, error_row, row_ender, help_text_html, errors_on_separate_row): # ... label = bf.label_tag(label) or '' }}} -- -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/29153#comment:2> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
