Example of a model: models.py from django.db import models class YourModel(models.Model): fieldname = models.CharField(max_length=255, default="default") In your form, you can add widgets with ModelForm. To make it hidden add 'type': 'hidden' as shown below forms.py from .models import YourModel from django import forms class YourForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = YourModel fields = ('fieldname',) widgets = { 'fieldname': forms.TextInput(attrs={'type': 'hidden'}), } If you don't know how to add it to your views.py file, here is some videos about it.

Bravo on an interesting project. A standard pattern for this scenario involves the use of a `ModelForm`. Model Forms create new data and show users pre-populated forms with data previously written to the database. Create and Update views are usually separate (as well as Delete views).
