Sure, we can do this, but this doesn't provide a nice application-level way of adding this to the admin listing.
At the company I work for, we have over 100 websites we deploy for (and we are just starting to transition to Django). We deploy each application individually depending on a client's need... X client may need a survey tool, a news tool, and so on. We install them as they purchase them from us. We have a very automated way of deploying things, and to have to add this functionality to the admin's index template for each application every time we deploy the application is going to become a nightmare. I'm actually working on a ticket related to the newforms admin, though I've only made a small amount of progress so far (this has been the week from hell at work): http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2292 And yes, it's pretty obvious from the work I've done so far that there doesn't seem to be a nice way to do this that's built in. I was hoping there was some other clean workaround, but I guess that's a bit silly. Maybe my work on the current ticket will give me enough experience so that I can suggest a nice, official way to get admin actions (that aren't just adding, updating, or deleting data in a model) listed in the admin interface. It's definetly going to be a critical need for our company. olivier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Hi, > >> But I want it to be listed along with the rest of the admin listing >> for that app. > > > I may not have understood what you have in mind, but why don't you add > something after the line 39 of contrib/admin/templates/index.html (or > actually your copy of it): > > {% for model in app.models %} > ... regular admin stuff > {% endfor %} > <!-- your custom stuff --> > <a href="..."> upload CSV file </a> > > Olivier > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
