The 'choices' argument should look like this: ((1, 'Foo'), (2, 'Bar'), (3, 'Baz'), (4, 'Quux')) Instead, it's going to look like this: [<Club object>, <Club object>, <Club object>, <Club object>] So when the form goes to look "inside" each item to pull out the id and string value of the choice, it finds that it can't -- it was expecting a tuple or a list, and got a model instance instead. What you want is something like EventFormClass.base_fields['club'].widget = widgets.Select(choices=[(club.id, str(club)) for club in Club.objects.filter(approved=True)] Also, it's often a good idea to *not* try to shoehorn things into form_form_model... usually it's quicker to write a custom form which does what you want than to add/remove things from form_for_model. -- "Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct -- the best kind of correct." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
