Description

I have model with a boolean field, and a custom validator is defined in the validator_list parameter.

he validator has to run
whenever the form is submitted, whether the checkbox is ticked or not.
I have set the 'always_test' parameter to true for the validator, but
the validator still only gets called when the box is ticked. I have
found that the 'always_test' parameter works fine for other types of
field, it just appears to be a problem with booleanfields. Relevant
sections of the model are pasted below:

class Order(models.Model):

def stor_all(field_data, new_data):

..validator code goes here

stor_all.always_test = True

storage_all = models.BooleanField('All to be delivered to

storage?', null='true', validator_list = [stor_all])

Can you confirm if this is still a problem on a current checkout?

I don't think we should close tickets just because they haven't been confirmed. We could end up closing a bunch of valid tickets that way.

The submitter emailed me and confirmed that this had been a mistake on his part, and not a bug in Django.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
