When using list_editable in ModelAdmin, is there any way to change the widget used for the editable fields? I can\'t find anything in the documentation. Seems like

If you want to change widget only (tested on django 1.5) you won't need to set labels ect. just use this syntax:

from django import forms

class OfferForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Offer
        widgets = {
            'description' : forms.Textarea(
                attrs={
                    'cols': '20',
                }
            )
        }

Where widgets dict is dict whose keys are names of fields and values represents widgets you want to override.

As documentation states for django 1.5+ its also possible to just:

class OfferAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    def get_changelist_form(self, request, **kwargs):
        return OfferForm

Without any super() and kwargs juggling.
