James, Did you ever get a response to this issue? I am having a devil of a time adding some extra non-model fields to an admin inline form. My added complication is that the fields are only defined at run time, so I have to have a loop that creates them based on a different model in my app.
Would you be willing to share your code with me? In particular, I am not sure where and how you are using self.form.declared_fields. I am running django 1.11. Thanks!
