Here are the steps I would use to add a field to an existing model without having to write your own SQL and without the risk of getting your model code out of sync with your database table. This code uses the same objects in the Tutorial on http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0.96/tutorial01/. Open up a Command Prompt window and change the drive/directory to your project. Then do something similar to the following:
> python manage.py dumpdata polls > polls.json > python manage.py sqlclear polls > polls_drop.sql > mysql -u root -p pypoll < polls_drop.sql enter your password for the root user (change for your specific username) edit mysite/polls/models.py and add the field to the Poll model > python manage.py syncdb > python manage.py loaddata polls.json Hope this helps.
