    Check out _meta in manage.py shell -- lots of good stuff in there.


That's the model's verbose_name

I want a field's verbose_name (see subject)

[ Thanks for replying though ]


Oops, I missed that. Still, my 'check out _meta' advice was spot on -- you can get the field verbose name from in there. Have you had a look at the things available in the _meta of your model? Hint, try get_field_by_name. I found it just now digging in there.

If there's an easier/cleaner way I hope someone else pipes in and mentions it.
