I have ModelMultipleChoiceField working for me OK, but I am not sure I
understand your question. Could you be a bit more specific?
This is a snippet from my code which may or may not help:
class PictureForm(ModelForm):
tags = ModelMultipleChoiceField(queryset=Tag.objects.all(),
widget=CheckboxSelectMultiple, required=False)
class Meta:
model = Picture
fields = ('title', .... , 'tags')
# the view:
def edit_picture(request, pic_id):
pic = get_object_or_404(Picture, pk=pic_id)
if request.method == "POST":
pic_form = PictureForm(request.POST, instance=pic)
if pic_form.is_valid():
pic_form.save()
else:
pic_form = PictureForm(instance=pic)
return render_to_response("cat/edit_picture.html", dict(
pic_form = pic_form
))
