How do I set a field to read-only in a Django form? I know how to disable a field but that's not what I'm looking for. Any help would be appreciated.

Setting readonly on a widget only makes the input in the browser read-only. Adding a clean_sku which returns instance. sku ensures the field value will not change on form level. This way you can use model's (unmodified save) and avoid getting the field required error.
A formset is a layer of abstraction to work with multiple forms on the same page. It can be best compared to a data grid. Let's say you have the following form: >>> from django import forms >>> class ArticleForm(forms.
A widget is Django's representation of an HTML input element. The widget handles the rendering of the HTML, and the extraction of data from a GET/POST dictionary that corresponds to the widget. The HTML generated by the built-in widgets uses HTML5 syntax, targeting <! DOCTYPE html> .
You can use the optional attrs parameter when defining the Field. To wit:
somefield = forms.CharField( widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'readonly':'readonly'}) ) If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
