Menu
class permForm(forms.Form):
def __init__(self, data=None, **kwargs):
super(permForm, self).__init__(data, **kwargs)
for item in list(AdminMenu.objects.filter(parent_id=0)):
self.fields['menu_%d' % item.id] = forms.BooleanField(label=item.title)
for childitem in list(AdminMenu.objects.filter(parent_id=item.id)):
arr=[]
arr.append(str(item.id))
arr.append(str(childitem.id))
self.fields['menu_%s' % '_'.join(arr)] = forms.BooleanField(label=childitem.title)

But Django doesn’t easily let us edit the form for good designs. Here, we will see one of the ways to customize Django forms, So they will look according to our wish on our HTML page. Basically we will check the methods to include our own custom css, classes, or id to individual fields in forms.
Let’s say, we are having a simple Django form that will have four fields: We are not going to discuss how we create this form but rather than we are going to see how to customize the frontend of Django forms.
Every field comes in with some built-in validations from Django validators. Each Field class constructor takes some fixed arguments. label is used to change the display name of the field. label accepts as input a string which is new name of field.
At the heart of this system of components is Django’s Form class. In much the same way that a Django model describes the logical structure of an object, its behavior, and the way its parts are represented to us, a Form class describes a form and determines how it works and appears.
Here's an example of how to add some HTML to form labels:
from django.template.defaultfilters import mark_safe
class MyForm(forms.Form):
my_field = forms.CharField(
max_length=100,
label = mark_safe('<strong>My Bold Field Label</strong>')
)
