One issue is that for syncdb to work it has to find all of the models. It does this, IIUC, by importing models from each INSTALLED_APP. If you can arrange for that to import your added model, you are on the right track. For example, you can make your models.py files each import an extra file con

It's probably a little more complex than that. When you want to display the current DB value in a form for editing, you're going to have to turn it back into a list. If I recall correctly, there is a field on djangosnippets that implements storing a multi-select as comma separated values. I don'

Re: How to set an Admin form field value before displaying the form?

The way to do that is to use the 'initial' keyword argument when you instantiate the form, to which you supply a dictionary of field name : initial value e.g.: form = KingModelForm(initial={'first': 'First Name', 'last': 'Surname'}) How you split the name will depend on how you're storing it.
