django-clearable-widget
django-clearable-widget is a custom widget that adds a input clearing button on any input fields that are using it. It clears the value, and returns focus to that field.
Installation
pip install django-clearable-widget
Setup
Add clearable_widget to INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS += (
'clearable_widget',
)
and just include clearable_widget templates
{% include "clearable_widget/clearable_widget_css.html" %} {# Before the closing head tag #}
{% include "clearable_widget/clearable_widget_js.html" %} {# Before the closing body tag #}
When deploying on production server, don’t forget to run:
python manage.py collectstatic
Usage
All you need now is to import ClearableInput class and override field’s widget, for example:
from clearable_widget import ClearableInput
class Form(forms.Form):
field = forms.CharField(widget=ClearableInput)
Please see example application. This application is used to manually test the functionalities of this package. This also serves as a good example.
You need only Django 1.4 or above to run that. It might run on older versions but that is not tested.

Changes
1.3.0 (2026-10-10)
Dropped Python 3.10 support; 3.11 is now the minimum required version.
1.2.0 (2026-09-08)
Dropped the jQuery dependency; clearable.js is now plain vanilla JS.
1.1.0 (2026-08-14)
Dropped Python <3.10 / Django <5.2 support; added Django 6.0 / 6.1 support.
Moved the Jinja2 template into clearable_widget/jinja2/ so it’s genuinely served by the Jinja2 backend instead of silently falling through to DjangoTemplates.
Fixed the clear button staying hidden on pre-filled fields until the first keystroke.
Fixed a dead if (form) check in clearable.js that never actually guarded anything.
1.0.0 (2021-11-30)
Added Django 3+ support.
Dropped Python 2.7 support.
Dropped Django 1.10 / 1.11 support.
