Trying to get admin on my system to load values based on related
tables on db.  I have set the FK on the papers table to tie with the
PK of each look-up table and set models like so:

class LuPaperContentEra(models.Model):
    paper_content_era = models.CharField(blank=True, maxlength=150)

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.paper_content_era

    class Meta:
        db_table='lu_paper_content_era'

The main table, which should contain drop-downs for things like the
model/table above, has things like:

class Paper(models.Model):
    ... many fields defined
    PaperContent_Era = models.ForeignKey(LuPaperContentEra)
    ... more fields defined

    class Meta:
        db_table='papers_admin'

    class Admin:
        list_display=('id','FirstName','LastName','Institution')
        search_fields=['LastName']

However, Admin displays the drop-down as

LuPaperContactEra object, NOT the actual human-readable value list.

I feel I am probably close to getting this to work but can't seem to
find the right direction in which to be "nudged".

Thanks!
