* status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: Thanks for this report, however this is a documented and expected behavior (see [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/forms/modelforms /#field-types "Field types"] and [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/forms/modelforms /#overriding-the-default-fields "Overriding the default fields"]): > ... Similarly, fields defined declaratively do not draw their attributes like max_length or required from the corresponding model. If you want to maintain the behavior specified in the model, you must set the relevant arguments explicitly when declaring the form field. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/30831#comment:1> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
