Like the ``formfield_for_foreignkey`` method, the ``formfield_for_manytomany``
method can be overridden to change the default formfield for a many to many
field. For example, if an owner can own multiple cars and cars can belong
to multiple owners -- a many to many relationship -- you could filter the
``Car`` foreign key field to only display the cars owned by the ``User``::
class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
def formfield_for_manytomany(self, db_field, request, **kwargs):
if db_field.name == "cars":
kwargs["queryset"] = Car.objects.filter(owner=request.user)
return super(MyModelAdmin, self).formfield_for_manytomany(db_field, request, **kwargs)
.. method:: ModelAdmin.queryset(self, request)
