Yes, that was it. ModelForms are nice because you don't have to
specify the fields to put in the form, it does that automatically.
However, as soon as you want to customize the widgets being used for
the fields, you _do_ have to specify the fields in your ModelForm, and
put the classes and whatnot into the widget. So in your case, your
form will have to do something like this:
class Model_1Form(ModelForm):
title =
forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'class':'super'}))
# other fields that need to be customized
class Meta:
model = Model_1
# etc
That ought to do it...
