That means editing the already saved data?

Assuming you are using a ModelForm, use the instance keyword argument,
and pass the model you are updating.

So, if you have MyModel and MyModelForm, then your code might look like:

my_record = MyModel.objects.get(id=XXX)
form = MyModelForm(instance=my_record)

And then, when the user sends back data by POST:

form = MyModelForm(request.POST, instance=my_record)

Documentation is here:
