Re: Customize the admin look and feel
"DjangoProjects/mysite/mytemplates/admin/" but I created the "mytemplates" and "admin" directories for this purpose. What exactly is this supposed to do for me anyway? I thought it would allow me to edit the "Django administration" bar at the top, but I can't as of yet. On Jan 2, 8:05 pm, Daniel Roseman wrote: > The directions seem quite clear.

New to Django, sheet music organization site
I am wanting to create an app that helps me organize sheet music. I want to be able to sort by the artist. Every piece of sheet music I have I want to be scanned in and uploaded as an image file, then when I want to open a particular file, it opens as a PDF. This would be my long terms goals. For now since I am new to Django, I just want to simply organize my music and be able to easily sort. I know I will need: from django.db import models class Artist(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=30) genre = models.CharField(max_length=30) class Song(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=30) artist = models.ForeignKey(Artist) What else can I do to help me get a start with this? I've gone through the tutorial and I understand how Django works, its just a matter of getting some hands on experience.

PageAdmin.fieldsets[0][1]['fields']' refers to field 'username' that is missing from the form.
Hello, I am trying to make a custom (extended) User, according to this: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#storing-additional-information-about-users So I created my own user called DashboardUser, made a link to django User using models.OneToOneField and added several additional attributes. So far so good. Now I wanted my administration to display attributes but also to display regular User attributes (like 'username' or 'last_name') and that's where I ran into trouble because admin (or autodiscover() for that matter) seems to be unable to find these. Here's my model: http://pastebin.com/CqKHV8xf And here's my attempt to customize admin view for my DashboardUser: http://pastebin.com/MzPDF12S If anyone knows where to go from here, I'd appreciate your input (I tried #django on freenode but nobody knew). I am using Django 1.2.3 with Python 2.6.6 on Gentoo x86. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Customize the admin look and feel
Hi, Your TEMPLATE_DIRS should contain a path to a folder where you want to keep your templates. Say if your project is in *D:/myproject* then create a folder named template under *D:\myproject*, and in that folder create a folder named *admin *and then copy and paste base_site.html into the admin folder. TEMPLATE_DIRS section should look like the below snippet in settings.py * TEMPLATE_DIRS = ( 'D:/myproject /templates' ) * On Sun, Jan 2, 2011 at 10:04 AM, Anthony Pearce wrote: > I have made it to the "Writing your first Django app, part 2" page > down to "Customize the admin look and feel", at the bottom.

Re: Customize the admin look and feel
OK, this is now what I have:
Project location. C:\DjangoProjects\mysite\
base_site.html locationC:\DjangoProjects\mysite\templates
\base_site.html
TEMPLATE_DIRS reads "C:/DjangoProjects/mysite/templates/"
There are no apparent errors, but I also do not see how this helps
me.
base_site.html reads as follows:
{% extends "admin/base.html" %}
{% load i18n %}
{% block title %}{{ title }} | {% trans 'Django site admin' %}{%
endblock %}
{% block branding %}
{% trans 'Django Administration' %}
{% endblock %}
{% block nav-global %}{% endblock %}
What am I supposed to do with this to change the appearance?
btw, tyvm for your response :)

Re: Customize the admin look and feel
TYVM for your response. My first reply does not show, so hopefully I'm
not double posting.
This is what I have so far:
TEMPLATE_DIRS "C:/DjangoProjects/mysite/mytemplates/"
base_site.html location C:\DjangoProjects\mysite\mytemplates
This is what base_site.html reads.
{% extends "admin/base.html" %}
{% load i18n %}
{% block title %}{{ title }} | {% trans 'Django site admin' %}{%
endblock %}
{% block branding %}
{% trans 'Django Administration' %}
{% endblock %}
{% block nav-global %}{% endblock %}
If this supposed to help me change the appearance? I don't see how to
change anything here.

Re: Customize the admin look and feel
Could you please try moving the base_site.html to
C:\DjangoProjects\mysite\mytemplates\admin
folder and Leave the TEMPLATE_DIRS as it is, which is "*
C:/DjangoProjects/mysite/mytemplates*" only. and please try removing the /
slash at the end.

Re: Customize the admin look and feel
That has worked. Puzzling to me though since we left off the admin
directory in TEMPLATE_DIRS
None the less, thank you very much. I will continue with the tutorial
and see how much farther I can get.

ImproperlyConfigured: 'SentAdmin.fields' refers to field 'dateSent' that is missing from the form.
I was changing models many times and deleting tables inbetween. New tables were generated to improved models and admin site worked perfectly. Now smth happened that i am getting error: ImproperlyConfigured: 'SentAdmin.fields' refers to field 'dateSent' that is missing from the form. 'dateSent' is in the model and correctly described in admin.py I did not added this field before generating new tables. It was previously. If i comment other fields gives the same error. What can be the solution? Should i make new project or there is a way to update forms (for field 'dateSent' and orher fields that are missing from the form according Django) ?? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Ajax and SSL
Would one of the following work?
1. Hardcore https in the VIEW1 template
2. Write response middleware that, if the request is secure, basically
does s/http/https/g on the response text (this obviously gets all
other URLs as well, which you may not want)
3. Add another MEDIA_URL like variable to settings: eg: AJAX_URL which
is absolute with https
If your template is used by more than one view you could also write a
context processor that, if the request is secure, changes AJAX_URL
accordingly to be http or https.
Hope that helps

Post only the definitions of the model containing dateSent and its ModelAdmin. Also: Are you using dateSent somethwere else in the dmin.py?

Re: Following "first app" tutorial -- admin site can't find css files
Hi Arthur,
Thanks for your post. It was one of the first I found perfectly aligned with
my current issue: showing the look & feel one would expect, while following
the official django tutorial at
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial02/ using django's
default *development server*.
After looking around for the replies on this post and other similar
questions on the web, I was able to fix this with these 4 actions:
1. Make sure you have the following lines in settings.py:
-
- MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "media")
- MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
- ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/media/admin/'
2. Add the following line to urls.py, as an extra parameter inside the *
patterns* function call
-
- # Required to make static serving work
- (r'^media/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT}),
3. Build a directory structure to the above settings
4. And, finally, copy the default admin CSS files from the django
installation onto the above structure (in my case the django CSS files were
in *C:\django\django\contrib\admin\media\css*)
Also, it helped me a lot to read these posts in the web:
-
http://twigstechtips.blogspot.com/2009/08/django-how-to-serve-media-files-css.html
- http://rob.cogit8.org/blog/2008/Jun/20/django-and-relativity/
Have fun,
Pedro

Django dev server issue
Hi,
I'm having a issue with Django's dev server. I did a "django-admin.py
startproject" then "manage.py startapp home", then added the app in
settings.py and in urls.py. The app only has a index function in
views.py which is mapped to / and just renders a simple html template.
What happens is that sometimes(and this is often) when i load the page
in a broswer (tryed Chrome and Firefox) or refresh it, the page starts
loading but it never finishes. And if i hit the browser's stop button
i get this in the console
Exception happened during processing of request from ('127.0.0.1',
52495)

Re: New to Django, sheet music organization site
Ok I have a good start. I have run into a problem though. In my database, I have an artist field. Most artists have a space in there name. When creating my URLs, how can I ignore white space? For example, take the artist Chris Tomlin. In my database, it will show as "Chris Tomlin", but I don't want to type "music/Chris Tomlin" to access it, I want to type "music/christomlin" or "music/ chris_tomlin". How can I do this?

Re: Django dev server issue
The exception you're seeing is just a response to stopping the request in
the browser. The real problem is that your view function is hanging. Could
you post the source to the view (and the substantial parts of your
template)? Very hard to offer suggestions without the right data.

You'll probably want to install the Django debug toolbar (

Stick to Chris Tomlin everywhere in your database because that is the name you want. Most systems with people names split them into surname and given name columns but that doesn't seem to make sense in your case unless you think you will want to search millions of records by separate surname or given names. The URL however is a different matter. You need to decide how you want to refer to the artists in a consistent way and put a decorated method in your artist model something like ... @models.permalink def get_absolute_url(self): return "/music/artist/%s/" % self.slug ... where self.slug is a field on the artist model where you store the representation of the artist's name in exactly the way you want to type it in as a URL. Note that I added /artist/ to your URL because you will probably want to do something similar for songs and the same principle applies. If you did something like this in your artist model ... slug = models.SlugField(unique=True) ... then the admin app would automatically create the slug for you with hyphens replacing spaces and everything lower-cased. But you need to specify in the admin app which field is the source for the slug. Otherwise, you could write a method of your own on the artist model to massage the name as you prefer and populate the slug field when saving a record. hth Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Unable to import middleware class 'facebook.djangofb.FacebookMiddleware' with uncaught exception
Disclaimer: I'm new to Django and system administration, though a C++
developer.
following the tutorial on:
http://uswaretech.com/blog/2009/02/how-to-build-a-facebook-app-in-django/
I get everything set up. In my settings.py, I have in my
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES:
'facebook.djangofb.FacebookMiddleware',
When I run this, it renders:
"Unhandled Exception
An unhandled exception was thrown by the application.
"
my logs look like this (note "Error importing middleware" at the top
of the stack trace). Any idea how/why it cannot find this "middleware"
and why the exception would not be caught? Thank you in advance.

If anyone wants to use it, I implemented this solution.
Just use FilesModelAdmin for your models that have file or image fields.
1. A checkbox will be displayed, to remove the current value, if the
field supports blank values.
2. The uploaded files are stored in session variables for later use, in
case the form fails validation you don't need to upload then again.
3. It works for inline models also.
Problem:
if the user is editing two forms at the same time in the same session,
the uploaded files will be mixed...

Re: New to Django, sheet music organization site
Thank you very much! You have been very helpful. I have, however, run
into another problem.
When I try to access my Object, I get an error "invalid literal for
int() with base 10". I know it has something to do with ForeignKeys,
but cannot find how to fix it.
**models.py**--
from django.db import models
# Create your models here.
class Artist(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
slug = models.SlugField(unique=True)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
class Album(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
artist = models.ForeignKey(Artist)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
class Song(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
artist = models.ForeignKey(Artist)
album = models.ForeignKey(Album)
date_added = models.DateField('date added')
def __unicode__(self):
return self.name
**views.py**--
from music.models import Song
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
# Create your views here.
def index(request):
artist = Song.objects.all().order_by('name')
return render_to_response('music/index.html', {'artist': artist})
def artist(request, myartist):
myArgs = Song.objects.all().filter(artist=myartist)
return render_to_response('music/index.html', {'artist': myArgs})

Redirecting to last view after login.
I have wrestled with this one for a bit and googled and looked through documentation, so I guess its time to ask. I am trying make my app redirect to the last viewed page after logging in. I am running django 1.2.4 and have had no luck so far. This Stack Overflow thread seemed like it would do the trick but I have not had success with it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/806835/django-redirect-to-previous-page-after-login Currently after logging in from any view I am redirected to: http://localhost:1100/accounts/profile/ Currently I am trying this in settings.py: "django.core.context_processors.request", With this as my login button link: login I also made sure to import the RequestContext in my views.py file: from django.template import RequestContext Some how I get the impression this is not working. Also I noticed now login URL has a partial next URL in it: http://localhost:1100/accounts/login/?next= Suggestions?

Re: Show HTML in Labels for Model Choice Fields
I was able to find the solution to it myself.
The key was to
1. Create a custom field that extended ModelChoiceField.
2. Overwrite the label_from_instance method in the custom field.
3. Return a HTML string from the label_from_instance method, and
marking that as a safe_string.
from django.forms import ModelChoiceField
from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe
class ThemeChoiceField(ModelChoiceField):
def label_from_instance(self,obj):
return mark_safe("%s - Click here to see an example. \
" \
% (obj.name, obj.pk, obj.pk, obj.image.url))
