I already posted this question on Stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/q/33189728/855050), but haven't received any answers, just a comment by another user with the same issue. I am posting here for added visibility. I think this is a bug in Django v1.8. I'll copy the question's text here for convenience.
The django-admin app is supposed to open a popup window when I try to create a related object. For example, clicking the green plus button here: <http://i.stack.imgur.com/kT9Im.png> Should bring a new pop-up window, where I can create a new related (in this case Session) object. However, when I click the green plus button, the object create opens up in the same window, instead of a pop-up window. This is a problem, because if a user starts to create a primary object, then half-way through, clicks the green plus, he will lose all the progress on the primary object. This means that the green plus is unusable. I have no idea why this is happening. Any ideas of how I can diagnose this? And fix it? Related: http://stackoverflow.com/q/29811544/855050. But he's using Grappelli, which I am not. I am using the default django admin interface. I am using Django version 1.8. *PD:* In the meantime, is there a way to disable the popups? Right now this feature is broken in my server and its affecting my users. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
