admin.py

class CaseNoteInline(admin.TabularInline):
    model = CaseNote
    form = CaseNoteInlineForm
    extra = 1
    max_num = 5
    readonly_fields = ['User']


    def formfield_for_foreignkey(self, db_field, request, **kwargs):
        if db_field.name == 'User':
            kwargs['initial'] = request.user.id
            return db_field.formfield(**kwargs)
        return super(CaseNoteInline, self).formfield_for_foreignkey(
            db_field, request, **kwargs
        )

i have a some column in CaseNote which is "User" and i want to set default value for that.

you have to use form for admin. – Sandeep Balagopal Oct 03 '17 at 07:17
class CaseNoteInlineForm(forms.ModelForm): model = CaseNote def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): initial = kwargs.pop('initial', {}) initial['User'] = initial.get('User', 1) kwargs['initial'] = initial super(CaseNoteInlineForm, self).__init__( *args, **kwargs ) now i just need to set user and i tried to request.user but its not working :S – jackquin Oct 03 '17 at 07:24
