def _get_changed_field_labels_from_form(form, changed_data):
changed_field_labels = []
+ opts = form.instance._meta
for field_name in changed_data:
try:
- verbose_field_name = form.fields[field_name].label or
field_name
+ # can't use form.fields[field_name].label because it is
wrapped in capfirst()
+ verbose_field_name = opts.get_field(field_name).verbose_name
or field_name
except KeyError:
verbose_field_name = field_name
changed_field_labels.append(str(verbose_field_name))
}}}
Now, my example is:
column content: `[{"changed": {"fields": ["status"]}}]`
str of logentry: `Modification de « t2>t2:90 » — Modification de état.`
