This thread has prompted me to blog about my solution to this problem. Here's how I've done this:
1) I created a UserModelChoiceField(ModelChoiceField) class whose label_from_instance method returns a string containing the User's full name (and username in parenthesis) 2) Create a ModelForm for the Model containing the FK to User. In this form, use the UserModelChoiceField to override the FK attribute. 3) In the ModelAdmin class, set a form attribute that points to the above ModelForm. More detail (and some samples) are available here: http://bradmontgomery.blogspot.com/2010/04/pretty-options-for-djangos-authuser.html There's probably a simpler way, but I've been using this method for about a year in some production code. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
