In this document http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/
ModelAdmin.search_fields is explained:
"You can also perform a related lookup on a ForeignKey with the lookup
API "follow" notation.
search_fields = ['foreign_key__related_fieldname']"
I tried
search_fields = ['school__lawyer']
but I get an error message when I did a search for last name of
lawyer:
Related Field has invalid lookup: icontains
When I try
search_fields = ['school__last']
I get the error message
Cannot resolve keyword 'last' into field. Choices are: id, lawyer,
school
Maybe I don't understand what "related_fieldname" is.
What is it?
This is my model:
class School(models.Model):
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.school
class Lawyer(models.Model):
first = models.CharField(max_length=20)
initial = models.CharField(blank=True, max_length=2)
last = models.CharField(max_length=20)
year_graduated = models.IntegerField('Year graduated')
school = models.CharField(max_length=200)
school = models.ForeignKey(School)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.first
Thank you
