Re: forms.ChoiceField get displayed value

Try something like this:

field = form.fields['property']
data = form.cleaned_data['property']
if isinstance(data, (list, tuple)):
# for multi-selects
friendly_name = [x[1] for x in field.field.choices if x[0] in data]
else:
# for single selects
friendly_name = [x[1] for x in field.field.choices if x[0] == data]
