Customizing a Django Admin panel, I'm using raw_id_fields<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.raw_id_fields> to select a ForeignKey from a Model which has thousands of elements, because the default select-box drop-down is inconvenient with so many elements.
It works but it shows the id as can be seen on this image: [image: enter image description here] <http://i.stack.imgur.com/LE1cr.png> Is there any way to show the name or other field instead of the id? Or, is there any better way to accomplish this than using raw_id_fields? This is my code in models.py: class Structure(MPTTModel): name = models.CharField(max_length=200, unique=True, verbose_name = _('name')) parent = TreeForeignKey('self', null=True, blank=True, related_name='children', verbose_name = _('parent')) def __unicode__(self): return u"%s" % (self.name) In admin.py: class StructureAdmin(tree_editor.TreeEditor): search_fields = ('name',) raw_id_fields = ('parent',) Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
