Hi Charlie,
You should probably put your custom code in the views.py file, and put
custom templates under your specified templates directory (the
templates should match the URL you are going for).
So from what I can gather this would be:
'TEMPLATES/admin/polls/poll/change_form.html' where TEMPLATES is the
directory that you specify in your settings.py file. (NOTE: module name
is singular!)
Also the template might contain something like:
{% extends 'admin/change_form' %}
{% block after_related_objects %}
<P>
Here is my extra content
</P>
{% endblock %}
Now, that was the easy part :)
Unfortunately, the admin interface does not yet allow you to easily
extend the information that is used in places like the change_form.
Your best bet for now is probably to copy and paste the change_stage()
and add_stage() method for your own modules. You can then override
these in the urls.py file.
e.g.
(r'^admin/(?P<app_label>[^/]+)/(?P<module_name>(polls|choices|myotheroverriddenmodule))/(?P<object_id>[0-9].+)/$',
'polls.apps.polls.views.override_change')
Note that I don't really think this is an ideal solution, but I've been
struggling with this problem for the last several days and for me this
seemed the best approach. Hopefully soon we'll have some way to more
easily extend the admin manipulators.
