Reduce number of choices in Django

Question

I have an IntegerField with choices.

The list of choices consists of 10 different choices. I have different ModelForm using this integerfield.

In some of the modelforms I don't want to display all of the choices.

Can I in the ModelForm reduce the number of available choices?

Are you talking about a `django.forms.IntegerField` or a `django.db.models.IntegerField` ? — José Tomás Tocino, Jun 07 '15 at 22:19

You need to make a new form class that is a subclass of ModelForm. Then the __init__ method of the ModelForm class change one of the things in self.fields after calling the superclass constructor.
