Question

I am hoping to edit multiple models at the same time on a singe page. Rather than using formsets, I got this to work with an array of forms that I loop through in the template in the view:

{% extends 'app_base.html' %} {% block content %}
<p>{{message}}</p>
<form method="post">{% csrf_token %} {% for form in forms %}{{ form.as_p }}{% endfor %}
    <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
{% endblock %}

However, annoying, I cannot see what I am editing in the output as its just a bunch of text boxes without labels.

As such, is there any way to access the model attributes alongside the form as I loop through like:

{% for form in forms %}{{form.object.name}}: {{ form.as_p }}{% endfor %}

如果所有表单都使用ModelForm，则需要使用正在更新的模型实例（MyForm(data=request.POST, instance=...)）对其进行初始化。

您可以访问表单的instance，它只是表单上的一个属性：form.instance。

请注意，即使您在初始化时未通过ModelForm，它也始终存在于instance上。在这种情况下，它是表单模型的初始化而不是保存的实例。因此，在这种情况下，form.instance.pk = None。
