You can't access something in a method unless it gets passed there, of course. "request" isn't some static object, it's instantiated at the beginning of every actual request, naturally. So you can't just import it - what would you import? Now, your last sentence reveals what you actually want to do, and of course Django has a way to achieve that: override the `save_model` method in the ModelAdmin class. That method does get the request passed in. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
