I've got a Topic model, which is a bit like a category. Then there are TopicItem objects, which have a foreign key to a Topic, and a generic foreign key to anything else in the website, so that I can attach anything to a particular Topic. In my admin site, a few models have a generic inline formset for TopicItems, for conveniences' sake (all that work quite nicely, thanks to whoever developed that), and then the Topics themselves each display theirTopicItems via plain old inline formsets.
My question is, how do the TopicItems appearing on the Topics page determine their heading? At the bottom of each Topic page there's a "Topic Items" section, and each item within that section has a little heading reading "Topic item: None". I don't want it to say "None", obviously, I want it to produce the unicode method of the object that's connected (via generic foreign key) to that TopicItem. The TopicItem __unicode__ method looks like this: def __unicode__(self): return unicode(self.content_object) This works great in the shell: if I print a TopicItem, it prints the unicode method of its related object. But in the admin it's mostly None. Except for in *one* case, where one instance of one model produces the correct title. Everything else is still None. So clearly this is confusing. I can't see anything special about that one instance of that one model, and I can't (despite lengthy poking) actually figures out from where in the source code this particular value arises. Can someone just point me to a file and line number? Or otherwise clarify this?
