Interesting, I thought I was doing that in my save method but obviously I cant be.
example. Model 1: auth_user_id row_id_of model_being_saved timestamp Model 2: something def save(self): auth_user_id = request.user.id row_id_of_model_being_saved = something Model 1.save() super( Model 2, self).save() I should not that this is retro stuff as in 0.97 pre code (old site), now that throws the request error Cheers 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. -- -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/where-is-%27request%27-as-in-from-x-import-y-tp31706142p31714838.html Sent from the django-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
