It get’s even easier with ModelForms. Just use:

from django import newforms as forms
from django.newforms.models import ModelForm
from models import Bookmark

class BookmarkForm(ModelForm):
id = forms.IntegerField(required=False, widget=forms.HiddenInput())
class Meta:
model = Bookmark

And it all just works.

class myForm
rollid = forms.IntegerField(required=True, widget=forms.HiddenInput())

[...]

form = myForm(initial={‘rollid’, roll.id})

And you will get the same.
