Django save_m2m() and excluded field
- by jul
hi,
in a ModelForm I replaced a field by excluding it and adding a new one
with the same name, as shown below in AddRestaurantForm. When saving
the form with the code shown below, I get an error in form.save_m2m()
("Truncated incorrect DOUBLE value"), which seems to be due to the
function to attempt to save the tag field, while it is excluded.
Is the save_m2m() function supposed to save excluded fields?
Is there anything wrong in my code?
Thanks
Jul
