Thank you for your reply, Rajesh. The two fields in question are
actually "pending_referrer_name" and "pending_referrer_email". In the
admin class code below, I include them in the fields attribute.
However, initially I did not and that is when the problem would occur.
Here is the model code:
class Resource(models.Model):
first_name = models.CharField(maxlength=32)
last_name = models.CharField(maxlength=64)
resource_type = models.ForeignKey('ResourceType',
verbose_name='Type of practice')
title = models.CharField(maxlength=128, blank=True, null=True)
practice_name = models.CharField(null=True, blank=True,
maxlength=128)
address1 = models.CharField(maxlength=128)
address2 = models.CharField(maxlength=64, blank=True, null=True)
city = models.CharField(maxlength=64)
state_or_province = models.ForeignKey('State_Province')
zip = models.CharField(maxlength=16)
country = models.ForeignKey('Country')
email = models.EmailField(unique=True)
phone = models.CharField(maxlength=24)
phone2 = models.CharField(maxlength=24, blank=True, null=True)
description = models.TextField(maxlength=400,
verbose_name='Short Description')
photo = models.ImageField(upload_to='resourcesguide/photos',
blank=True, null=True)
site_url = models.URLField(verify_exists=False, blank=True,
null=True,
verbose_name='Website')
office_hours = models.TextField(maxlength=200, blank=True,
null=True)
additional_locations = models.TextField(maxlength=200, blank=True,
null=True)
personal_statement = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True,
maxlength=1500)
services_and_specialties = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True,
maxlength=1500)
credentials = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True,
maxlength=1500, verbose_name='Education and Credentials')
affiliations = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True,
maxlength=1500, verbose_name='Insurance and managed care')
payment = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True,
maxlength=1500, verbose_name='Payment policies')
pending_referrer_name = models.CharField(maxlength=48, blank=True,
null=True)
pending_referrer_email = models.CharField(maxlength=64,
blank=True, null=True)
# From here down is for internal use only
display_on_website = models.BooleanField()
recommended_by = models.ForeignKey('Referrer', null=True,
blank=True)
paypal_number = models.CharField(maxlength=24, null=True,
blank=True)
initial_solicitation = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True)
initial_invoice = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True)
comments = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True,
verbose_name='History')
do_not_email = models.BooleanField()
referrer_solicitation_email_sent = models.DateField(blank=True,
null=True)
And the admin code:
class Admin:
list_display = ('last_name', 'first_name', 'practice_name',
'email',
'phone', 'recommended_by_', 'display_on_website')
search_fields = ('last_name', 'first_name', 'practice_name',
'recommended_by.name')
list_filter = ('city', 'state_or_province', 'zip', 'country')
fields = (('Service provider information', {'fields':
('resource_type',
'first_name', 'last_name', 'title',
'practice_name',
'address1', 'address2', 'city',
'state_or_province', 'zip',
'country', 'phone', 'phone2', 'email',
'site_url',
'description', 'additional_locations',
'office_hours',
'personal_statement', 'services_and_specialties',
'credentials', 'affiliations', 'payment',
'photo')}),
#('Referral information', {'fields':
('recommended_by',)}),
('Administrative information', {'fields': (
'display_on_website', 'do_not_email',
'initial_solicitation', 'initial_invoice',
'comments',
'paypal_number', 'pending_referrer_name',
'pending_referrer_email')}))
