That still doesn't work. In fact, no matter which column I select, I
still get the same order. This is my current code:
101 class Rotation(models.Model):
102 player = models.ForeignKey(Person, to_field='f_name',
verbose_name='Player', limit_choices_to={'relationship' : 'Player'})
103 date = models.DateField('Date', default=datetime.date.today)
104 game_type = models.CharField("Game Type",
choices=(('Scrimmage', 'Scrimmage'), ('Tournament', 'Tournament')),
max_length=10)
105 inning_count = models.IntegerField("Innings Out", default=1)
106 def __unicode__(self):
107 return '%s || %s %s || %s || %s' % (self.date,
self.player.f_name, self.player.l_name, self.game_type,
str(self.inning_count))
108 class Meta:
109 ordering = ['date']
110
111 class RotationForm(forms.ModelForm):
112 class Meta:
113 model = Rotation
114 exclude = ['date', 'inning_count']
115 ordering = ['player']
