I don't understand the documentation. I am able to get the "view on site" link to show, but the URL is wrong. The correct URL for the instance is...
http://www.mysite.com/billing/321 ...so I tried this... def get_absolute_url(self): return "/billing/%i" % self.id ...but when I click the resulting "view on site" link, I'm redirected to... http://example.com/billing/321/ I'm not sure where that "example.com" is coming from. I went looking for it in settings.py and urls.py and don't see it anywhere. -Ryan On Nov 4, 11:25 am, Adi Jörg Sieker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 04.11.2008 17:19 Uhr,webcommwrote:> How do I get the instance id from > within an admin template?
