So I'm replying to my own message here, but I want to tell you how I
did this in case
a) someone wants to show me a better way
b) it could be useful to someone
Again, what I'm trying to do is customize the way inline-edited objects
are displayed for one of my applications (without affecting any other
application).
First I changed line 52 of
django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/change_form.html to read:
{% for related_object in bound_manipulator.inline_related_objects %}{%
block related_object_display %}{% edit_inline related_object %}{%
endblock %}{% endfor %}
(i.e. I added the block and endblock tags).
Then I created another change_form.html file in my template directory
that simply contains:
{% extends "admin/change_form" %}
{% block related_object_display %}{% include
"admin/news/edit_news_inline" %}{% endblock %}
admin/news/edit_news_inline simply points to my custom template that
contains the code I want. I'll customize the url rewrite to point to
the default change_form for all applications, but my news application
will point to my new change_form.
Does this seem like a reasonable way to do this? I still don't quite
have a handle on all this so sometimes I feel like I'm doing things in
a very convoluted way.
Thanks.
