Columns

If you take a look to the directory “templates/cruds/columns” you can see the different kinds of colums depending on the type of field:

autofield.html
booleanfield.html
charfield.html
datefield.html
datetimefield.html
filefield.html
textfield.html
timefield.html

You can override the column type in lists pages with the custom html you want for your project. Just recreate the structure (templates/cruds/columns/) in your project and write your own html.

Forms

If you want to override a form with some other crispy features you can add to your testapp.urls the following:

from cruds_adminlte.urls import crud_for_model
urlpatterns += crud_for_model(Author, views=['create', 'update'],
    add_form=AuthorForm,  update_form=AuthorForm )

And define the AuthorForm with tabs or any other crispy feature in your app:

self.helper.layout = Layout(
    TabHolder(
        Tab(
            _('Basic information'),
            Field('name', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
            Field('address', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
            Field('email', wrapper_class="col-md-12"),
        ),
        Tab(
            _('Other information'),
            Field('image', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
            Field('cropping', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
            Field('cif', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
            Field('slug', wrapper_class="col-md-6")
        )
    )
)

You will get something similar to this:

Crispy tabbed form sample

class CustomerForm(forms.ModelForm):

    class Meta:
        model = Customer
        fields = ['name', 'image', 'cropping']
        widgets = {
            'image': ImageCropWidget,
        }

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(CustomerForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.helper = FormHelper(self)

        self.helper.layout = Layout(
            TabHolder(
                Tab(
                    _('Basic information'),
                    Field('name', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
                    Field('address', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),
                    Field('email', wrapper_class="col-md-12"),
                ),
                Tab(
                    _('Other information'),
                    Field('image', wrapper_class="col-md-6"),

                )
            )
        )

        self.helper.layout.append(
            FormActions(
                Submit('submit', _('Submit'), css_class='btn btn-primary'),
                HTML("""{% load i18n %}<a class="btn btn-danger"
