Hello. i have the same problem in my project as https://github.com/yourlabs/django-autocomplete-light/issues/810

I want to autocomplite CharField of model

# models.py


class Pet(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(blank=False, null=False, default='Noname', max_length=50)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name


# forms.py


class PetForm(ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Pet
        fields = [
            'name',
        ]
        widgets = {
            'name': autocomplete.ListSelect2(url='pet_name_lookup'),
        }

# admin.py


class PetAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    form = PetForm

admin.site.register(Pet, PetAdmin)


# view.py


class PetNameLookup(autocomplete.Select2ListView):

    def create(self, text):
        return text

    def get_list(self):
        result_list = []
        if self.q:
            data = Pet.objects.all().filter(name__icontains=self.q)[:10]

            result_list = [x.name for x in data]
        return result_list

On create admin form it works perfect, but when i try change pet name ListSelect2-widget set the field to blank.

What happens when you set self.fields[‘country’].initial ?
