#14529: Save messages for proxy models show a crazy verbose_name -------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: rlaa...@wiktel.com | Owner: nobody Status: new | Milestone: 1.3 Component: django.contrib.admin | Version: SVN Resolution: | Keywords: Stage: Accepted | Has_patch: 1 Needs_docs: 0 | Needs_tests: 1 Needs_better_patch: 1 | -------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by julien):
Here's a simple test case: Model: {{{ #!python from django.db import models class Book(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=100) author = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=True) }}} Admin: {{{ #!python from django.contrib import admin from .models import Book class BookAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display = ('name',) def queryset(self, request): return super(BookAdmin, self).queryset(request).only('name') admin.site.register(Book, BookAdmin) }}} Narrowing down the issue with `print` statements in `django.contrib.admin.options`: {{{ #!python def change_view(self, request, object_id, extra_context=None): ... print "Before:" + force_unicode(opts.verbose_name) return self.response_change(request, new_object) ... def response_change(self, request, obj): """ Determines the HttpResponse for the change_view stage. """ opts = obj._meta print "After:" + force_unicode(opts.verbose_name) ... }}} This results in: {{{ Before:book After:book_ deferred_author }}} So apparently the issue occurs when the meta options are reloaded in `response_change()` with opts = obj._meta. Note that the issue only arises with the change view. With the add view, the correct verbose names are displayed. -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14529#comment:3> Django <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
