Hello all,
Many thanks in advance for your time.
Problem: My product I will be selling has different attributes than
the default Product class and I have been stressing out for the last
four hours trying to find a reasonable way to change these attributes
(and add many more) before actually moving on to making templates,
etc. This must be quite simple! It seems that there are two ways to
do this...
1) Custom Product Attributes. I am able to successfully add
attributes, however, I am unable to view these in the Product page in
the admin site. When I try to customize the admin page via an
admin.py file per the directions in the Satchmo tutorial, like so:
... some code ...
list_display = ('name', 'artist',)
... rest of code...
I get an error like this, despite 'artist' existing as an attribute:
('artist' is not a callable or an attribute of 'CustomProductAdmin' or
found in the model 'Product'.)
2) Customizing the Product module. This seems to maybe be the most
fitting solution.
http://www.satchmoproject.com/docs/dev/custom-product.html
But I am miserably struggling with this as well. I am interpreting
this suggested approach as being analogous to inheritance, so I simply
am adding the fields that I need, but maybe that's where I am going
wrong. For example, if I try to add the following field within the
MyNewProduct class:
artist = models.CharField(_("Artist"), max_length=255, blank=False,
help_text=_("This is the artist..."))
I get "no such column: localsite_mynewproduct.artist" even after
syncing the database.
----------------------
There must be something I am missing here! I'd really love some help;
I don't think I've ever been so frustrated with coding... the whole
Django methodology is great, but Satchmo is giving me a hard time.
Thanks,
Brendan
