Aha! It has to do with #2. I get an AttributeError that leads me to think I'm asking the wrong question. So:
Is there a way to call a field from a related ForeignKey for one of the attributes of get_absolute_url()? That is: class Thing(models.Model): slug = models.SlugField() class OtherThing(models.Model): thing = models.ForeignKey(Thing) slug = models.SlugField() def get_absolute_url(self): return '/%s/%s/' % (self.thing.slug, self.slug) On Aug 15, 2:42 pm, RajeshD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I don't see anything wrong with what you have there.
