I have a model with a FilePathField declared as follows:

ftp_path = models.FilePathField(path=settings.BASE_SFTP_DIRECTORY,
                                    max_length=250, allow_files=False,
                                    recursive=True, allow_folders=True,
blank=True)

In my save command I do the following to ensure it has content:

if not self.ftp_path:
            self.ftp_path = settings.BASE_SFTP_DIRECTORY + self.slug + '/'

The intent here is to store a path name to a directory where I can import
files that have been pushed up via sftp. When I view my objects in the
shell they have correct data in this field and refer to existing
directories.

When viewed in the Admin, however, I just see a bunch of dashes for their
content with a drop down box offering no options. I cannot view or edit the
FilePathField content in the Admin whatsoever. The resulting html that is
generated looks like this:

<div class="form-row field-ftp_path">  <div>  <label for="id_ftp_path">Ftp
path:</label> <select id="id_ftp_path" name="ftp_path"><option value="">
---------</option></select>  </div> </div>

Kinda stuck about what I'm doing wrong here. Any ideas?

thanx,
