#6939 closed (duplicate)

ModelForm doesn't work correctly when initial is a MultiValueDict

Description

ModelForm should handle a QueryDict as initial data.

One of the uses would be in to be able to pass initial values by GET parameters (see #6938).

This patch fixes it in the ModelForm itself instead of in the Admin code.

Thanks to brosner on #django for the help! (basically fixing it ;)

I worked with masida to get this fixed. Bumping to RFC to be looked at by a core developer.

In light of #6314 I am going to close this as a duplicate and reopen #6938. Someone can bring this up on the django-dev mailing list to reopen the original ticket if there is a general use-case for this.
