Formatting django form.non_field_errors in a template

Question

How do I format django form.non_field_errors.as_text in a template without them being either an unordered list or having an * appended to the front?

{{ form.non_field_errors.as_text }} displays the errors with an * in front of the text.

This django ticket was also helpful in explaining why the * will not be removed, but that doesn't help me. I do not want the *.

Both {{ form.non_field_errors }} and {{ form.non_field_errors.as_ul }} display as an unordered list, and I do not want an unordered list.

Answer 1

{% for error in form.non_field_errors %}
    {{error}}
{% endfor %}

When you call the list of errors as text it will try to display it as a list. Simply loop through the list to get the error by itself so you can apply your own styling.
