Re: Django admin forms - using a different/unconventional widget for a field

In form, that displays the checkbox do something like this:
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(FormName, self).(*args, **kwargs)
    if self.instance and self.instance.checkboxfieldname != None: #we check if this form has instance and if checkbox :

        attrs = {'checked':'checked'}

    else:

        attrs = {}

    self.fields['checkboxfieldname'] = forms.BooleanField(widget = forms.CheckboxInput(attrs = attrs))

should work.
