Question

I have a ChoiceField in a bound form, whose choices are:

[('all', 'All users'), ('group', 'Selected groups'), ('none', 'None')]

In the template, I have no problem accessing its bound value (the actual value to be stored; the first element of each tuple) and the choices. With these pieces of info in hands, I know I should be able to access the display values, or the second element of each tuple. But how can I do that in the template? Thanks.

Answer 1

I doubt that it can be done without custom template tag or filter.
Custom template filter could look:

@register.filter
def selected_choice(form, field_name):
    return dict(form.fields[field_name].choices)[form.data[field_name]]
