ModelForm validation in 1.2.3
Hello: In 1.2 ModelForm validation was changed so that not only does it check the form validation, but it does validation of the model as well. I have a model that has custom validation for one of its fields, which should be unique in the table. Now I have a front end form, created by ModelForm for this model. I want do to the following: 1. Check if the fields are correctly filled in, as per the custom validator written for this model. 2. If an entry already exists for using the 'unique' field, return that object. 3. If and entry doesn't exist, create a new object. In the old django, before this change, I could easily do it: if request.method = 'POST': form = CustomerForm(request.POST) if form.is_clean(): try: customer = Customer.objects.get(email=form.cleaned_data['email']) except Customer.DoesNotExist: customer = form.save() In 1.2.3, this logic always fails because "is_clean()" fails if an existing customer enter's their email address. How can I do the same using django 1.2.3? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: ModelForm validation in 1.2.3
The question is how do I get the modelform to only check for form validity, and not model validity (like it did before). I don't see what your link has to do with that.
