I have a Django blog app with data in the (SQLite) database and have installed South so that I can add a 'modified' date field to the 'Entry' model. The field will initially be blank so I need blank=True for Django's admin validation.
However, since it will also be empty in the database, do I need null=True as well (since it is a date field and not a string-based field)? If it were a string-based field, would I need to populate it with an empty string instead of null? I've read James Bennet's post and the Django docs (links below), but can't fathom the correct approach for this case: http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2006/jun/28/django-tips-difference-between-blank-and-null/ http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
