Since you can't edit/change something that is the result of a model method, I don't believe there are any hooks for showing these thing on the change page. If I were to try to do this (which I haven't, so no guarantees that this is even the right approach) I'd probably start by looking at overriding/extending the template used for the change view for that model: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-admin-templates Karen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
