I agree. How do I do that? The entire system is in the Admin except for some trivial search and non-is_staff stuff. If I was to redo it without the Admin I would have to reinvent that entire wheel. Specifically, how do I call an external view from within the admin? I only want to call that view if the model instance attributes demand it. That means it cannot be an optional/clickable link. It must be automatic. Currently the admin url is (e.g.) http://localhost:8000/admin/substance/substance/1450/change/ while the substance is being edited. That url doesn't change while adding an ingredient. If the ingredient hasn't been paid for by *that* user the payment screen has to pop up. Currently it does this via modelAdmin.change_view() calling billing_payment_view() That url doesn't change until after a successful payment when billing_payment_view() calls billing_success_view() directly. At that point the url becomes http://localhost:8000/admin/substance/substance/1450/change/payment (without a trailing slash). Thereafter valid admin urls fail to show any content.. If I make settings APPEND_SLASH False, it says 404. Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
