I have an admin set up with three inlines. I would like to filter the inline's editable options by a variable that is defined in a settings file. I can over ride the actual admin pieces for each of the inlines (they all have full admin screens of their own). But I can't seem to get the standard def queryset(self, request): etc. over ride to work for inlines. I have seen a little talk about how inlines require you to create a new manager to filter the list of options.
Here is my inline admin code: class CandidateInline(admin.TabularInline): model = Candidate fields = ['%s_vote' % (race_type)] extra = 0 ordering = ('party', 'last_name') ## here is where the trouble is starting, I'd like to get rid of everything that isn't status 1 ### def queryset(self, request): qs = super(CandidateInline, self).queryset(request) return qs.filter(status="1").exclude(party="Independent") and here is the primary admin model that this inline is attached to: class RaceAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): inlines = [ CandidateInline, PrecinctInline, ] form = RaceForm fieldsets = ( ('General Race Information', { 'fields': ('name', 'office_name', 'type', 'county', 'general_winner') }), ('Partisan Race Outcomes (Runoff)', { 'classes': ('collapse',), 'fields': ('runoff_winner_d', 'runoff_winner_r', 'primary_advance_d', 'primary_advance_r'), }), ('Non Partisan Race Outcomes (Runoff)', { 'classes': ('collapse',), 'fields': ('runoff_winner_np',) }), ) list_display = ('name', 'type', 'county', ) list_filter = ('type', 'office_name', 'county') ordering = ['name'] # redefine the queryset to get rid of finals def queryset(self, request): qs = super(RaceAdmin, self).queryset(request) return qs.filter(type="2") -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
