You could do something like this:
f = forms.form_for_model(modelname)
f.base_fields['fieldname'].queryset = (query_based_on_variable)
I automatically do this for a number of forms (to enforce role-based access)
by looping through the base fields:
get_form(model_type, r):
f = forms.form_for_model(model_type)
for y in f.base_fields.iteritems():
if isinstance(y[1], forms.models.ModelChoiceField):
y[1].queryset = (y[1].queryset.model.permissible.all(role=r))
return f
'permissible' is a custom manager
