It depends on what you want. You can set 'created_by' to blank=True and null=False, so it doesn't have to be filled but it is still mandatory in the database. Or, if you never want to set it in the form, you can make it 'editable=False' and it doesn't show up in the form, but it can still be NOT

I don't understand why is it obvious that an 'else' won't work. If a single {% else %} is not what you want, you can nest {% if %} clauses. But if you are doing this it can also mean that you should move this logic to the view and just pass the final table to the template. - Paulo On Wed, Mar
