ModelAdmin ignores 'exclude' and 'fields' attributes of ModelForm.Meta

[Alexander Vasiljev <a.a.v.asiljev@…>]

This way exclusion works:

class RegionAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    #form = RegionForm
    exclude = ('changed_by', 'last_changed')

admin.site.register(Region, RegionAdmin)

but this way:

class RegionAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    form = RegionForm
    #exclude = ('changed_by', 'last_changed')

admin.site.register(Region, RegionAdmin)

where

class RegionForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Region
        exclude = ('changed_by', 'last_changed')

does not. This ticket is probably related to the #8071, however there are no foreing keys in the model.

just as a workaround until this gets fixed, you can do something like

class RegionAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    form = RegionForm
    exclude = RegionForm.Meta.exclude

Unnecessary, but avoids repeating myself

patch with fix and test

[Keith Bussell]

My fix checks the form's exclusion list if the admin's exclusion list isn't specified. Added a test to use the form described in the ticket description.

Fixed it for InlineModelAdmin as well.
