Question

Answer 1

You can use exclude parameter inside your form to exclude the fields you don't want to get validated.

Let's say you have a model named MyModel and a model form for it named MyForm

# forms.py

from django import forms
from .models import MyModel

class MyForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel 
        exclude = ['field_name_you_want_to_exclude']
