Re: how do I model an auto-populate name from admin authorised users list

2012-02-10 Thread K.C. Smith
You have a lot of big questions and you'll need to do some more learning of and practice Django to answer them all. But, I will try to answer some and point you in the right direction. First, you linked a snippet of what seems to be your "models.py" file, but much of what you wish to do will prob

Re: no plus-sign to add related object in admin

2012-01-05 Thread K.C. Smith
I have written a small patch that will add this feature (i.e., the ability to register a model in the admin and stop it from showing up in the index). If your problem was the same as mine, then this can get the plus signs where you want them without changing your preferred admin view. See https:/

Re: model for legacy table without primary key

You said the four fields are unique together, but "userid" sounds like it should also be unique be itself, in which case it could be your PK. In either case, you are being a bit an4l about something that matters little. You should probably just create another column for an auto- incrementing PK.

no plus-sign to add related object in admin

2011-12-29 Thread K.C. Smith
I've got a project where when I pull up the admin page to add an object (an object that has several foreign keys), some of the FK fields show the little green plus-sign links to add a new related object for that field and other FK fields do not. In the past, I've seen the plus-sign link to add a n

It's not required by PostgreSQL. See, http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/datatype-datetime.html , for example. You may be able to change the data type of that column directly in the database. (See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/ddl-alter.html#AEN2595 .) Maybe "ALTER

Hi, I'm interested in enabling this middleware module. The Django doc.s don't say much about this module. From looking at the code, however, and reading about these mechanisms it appears that the module will do nothing unless the 'ETag' and/or the 'Last-Modified' properties are already set on th

Thanks so much! A bug: The good news is you're not crazy; the bad news is there's no easy fix. :) But, in fact, I applied one of the patches there and it solved the problem very well. K.C. On Jun 23, 9:28 pm, Karen Tracey wrote: > > Looks like: > > http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5622 >

2009-06-23 Thread K.C. Smith
I want to (optionally) leave some fields in a model/table NULL. I've set the options "null=True" and "blank=True" for the fields in question. I know it's working because the admin site add form greyed out the "blank=True" fields. But, I still can't add an object with these fields blank/NULL. I
