Python Django Forms Model Forms Handling Multiple Form Classes

Templatetag using question_type

Hi everyone,

I wanted to change the question_form template to instead of saying "Make a new question" say "Make a new multiple choice question" or "Make a new true/false question"

I know I can do this in the template using {% if %} blocks after rendering the template with the question_type from the view, but I was wondering if I could make a templatetag to do so instead; something like {% question_type %}. However, because this isn't a property of the models I wasn't sure how/if I would go about this.

Any help would be appreciated!
