Re: Checkboxes for a list of items like in Django admin interface

Yes, this is the technique I described but I was asking if there is a
Django way to do this.

You can't forgot to sanitize the input in this case:

id_list = request.GET.getlist('id_notification_list')
id_list = [int(i) for i in id_list if i.isdigit()]
notifications = Notification.objects.filter(
id__in=id_list,
)
