  class Meta:
    model = MyImage
    exclude = ('test', 'user')

MyImageFormSet = modelformset_factory(MyImage, MyImageForm)

{% for form in formset %}
{{ form.non_field_errors }}

According to the Django documentation on modelformset, you can create MyImageFormSet as you have been doing, but simply filter it afterwards (and presumably return the new modelformset).

Create the modelformset as normal:

MyImageFormSet = modelformset_factory(MyImage, MyImageForm)

But use the modelformset with an empty query, like this:

MyImageFormSet(queryset=MyImage.objects.none())
