Re: Getting the "Real" Foreign Key from a ModelForm

You can use kwargs, but it is much cleaner and less typing to use
Model.objects.create() as you can omit the subsequent save() as
create() creates valid objects (they have pks).

You're right as far as that goes, but note that OP is using a ModelForm: so there is an even easier method.

    form = create_insp_m(request.POST)

    if form.is_valid():

        insp = form.save()

that way they can get rid of all the stuff involving `cleaned_data`, and even the querying for the Pad object, as the ModelForm does it all already.
