Signals are nice, but sometimes they just make code more complicated. You could
go for this (naive) approach:
class Order(models.Model):
def delete(self, *args, **kwargs):
# Detatch this order from its' items
for item in self.items.all():
item.order = None
item.save()
# Or is this what you really wanted?
# item.delete()
super().delete(*args, **kwargs)
class Item(models.Model):
def delete(self, *args, **kwargs):
if self.order:
LogEntry(order=instance.order).save()
super().delete(*args, **kwargs)
