Answer 2

Give a look at the code in: https://github.com/alex/django-taggit/blob/master/taggit/forms.py. You will find the widget used to render the tags. You can use it to render them correctly.

Example:

models.py

from django.db import models
from taggit.managers import TaggableManager


class Example(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=20)    
    tags = TaggableManager()

forms.py

.models import Example
from django import forms
from taggit.forms import TagWidget


class ExampleForm(forms.ModelForm):

    class Meta:
        model = Example
        fields = ('name', 'tags',)
        widgets = {
            'tags': TagWidget(),
        }
