> Can you tell us what you goal here is? The goal is to get my combined list of featured items to a changelist page. From there, I'll have additional work to do, but step one is getting it to the page at all.
Another thought is to just chain the querysets together and send 'em to my own template. It would look like part of the admin, but not actually be part of the admin. Problem there, of course, is that if I wanted actions, list display, or any other admin-y goodness, I'd be out of luck, I think. > > I'm trying to combine a subset of two models and pass them to an admin > > change list: > > > class FeaturedItemsAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): > > def queryset(self, request): > > qs1 = Foo.objects.filter(featured=True) > > qs2 = Bar.objects.filter(featured=True) > > ..... do stuff to combine ... > > return combined > > > I can return qs1 or qs2 to the admin, no problem.
