How do I override an admin template (e.g. admin/index.html) while at the same time extending it (see https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-vs-replacing-an-admin-template)?
For Django 1.1.
I have a Person model that has a foreign key relationship to Book, which has a number of fields, but I’m most concerned about author (a standard CharField).
How can I create more than one ModelAdmin for the same model, each customised differently and linked to different URLs?
How can I add a custom filter to django admin (the filters that appear on the right side of a model dashboard)? I know its easy to include a filter based on a field of that model, but what about a “calculated” field like this:
I have a simple Employee model that includes firstname, lastname and middlename fields.
I’m having trouble overriding a ModelForm save method. This is the error I’m receiving:
How can I change the default filter choice from ‘ALL’? I have a field named as status which has three values: activate, pending and rejected. When I use list_filter in Django admin, the filter is by default set to ‘All’ but I want to set it to pending by default.
How can I change the display text in a <select> field while selecting a field which is a ForeignKey?
How does one change the ‘Django administration’ text in the django admin header?
