I'm trying to use generic views together with the newly separated admin templates, but it's failing miserably.
I specify the generic view I want to use in url.py: countries = { 'app_label': 'ttime', 'module_name': 'countries', } urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^countries/$', 'django.views.generic.list_detail.object_list', countries), (r'^countries/add/$', 'django.views.generic.create_update.create_object', countries), ) I've copied django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/change_list.html to my own template directory (no changes yet). All I get for my efforts is: AttributeError at /countries/ 'str' object has no attribute 'result_count' Request Method: GET Request URL: http://localhost:8000/countries/ Exception Type: AttributeError Exception Value: 'str' object has no attribute 'result_count' Exception Location: /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/templatetags/admin_list.py in search_form, line 264 And the (nice and pretty but still) error message points to the line containing the {% search_form cl %} tag. I must be missing something fundamental here. Anyone? /LarS
