I think the solution is to look at the admindocs source and tweak it to do what you want and submit a patch.

The target audience for admindocs is template authors. This means you are possibly trying to make admindocs do something it wasn't designed to do. I don't mean your specific problem because I think template authors do need to see the inheriting model docstring. Rather, it is possible you want admindocs for developer documentation.

I discovered this recently when a patch I submitted was rejected on those grounds. I wanted to see model methods with args documented but that takes admindocs away from its objectives. Template authors can't use arguments when using model methods.

Hi

I'm using Django 1.4.2. I have a base model:

class  Account(models.Model):
         account_id  =  models.CharField(max_length=10,  unique=True)
         name  =  models.CharField(max_length=50)
         balance  =  models.DecimalField(max_digits=20,  decimal_places=2)


and I have child model that inherits from the base model:


class  BankAccount(Account):
     """
     Stores an instance of a Bank Account.

     """

     bank_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
     sort_code = models.CharField(max_length=8)


The details of the BankAccount show up in the Admin Docs but the doc string 
describing the BankAccount does not. Am I doing something wrong?


many thanks for your help


Dave
