Maybe you are right and this is the solution my current Python/Django
knowledge seems to be sufficient for. But, this is 'quick and dirty'
solution and I'm affraid I can't present it to my Boss without a risk
I'd be fired and we can't interface out users/customers to such kind
of interface in 21th century...

I don't agree in that point - from my perspective Django seems to be
the system, which is used by admins only (admin == user), because
admin's interface is pretty and much more user friendly comparing with
techniques for building ordinary user interface described in
documentation/tutorials, even if admins are used to talk to  machines
via text mode consoles :-O

I'm going mad if it is true that there is a valuable piece of
software, which is not possible to reuse in Django based applications.

Please, is there any other solution than copy&paste functions from
admin.main module and modify source code properly?

Thanks, Angela

How to use Admin modules in my application

2007-07-07 Thread Angela Sutanto

Hi everybody,

I'd like to take advantage of Admin modules to edit some my models
e.g. user profile by navigating user to
/admin/myapp/// to open
change form.

1. I should check, whether  is the same as request.user.id to
prevent user from editing a foreign user record. But I don't know how to
implement this. Perhaps by overriding some model's method or listening
for a suitable signal.

2. In the related admin's template I need somehow override tag
submit_row to hide all buttons except Save one. As well, I have no idea
   how to do this.

3. Finally, is my conception of using Admin modules this way feasible per se?


Please, could somebody enlighten me on this?


Thanks, Angela

Aha - it did not occur me. I was looking for some gadget proof against
an accidental (re)selection. This solution seems to me quite bit
susceptible...


Thanks for your help, Angela

Admin module, editing user account + user profile in the same page

2007-07-04 Thread Angela Sutanto

Hi

once more question concerning Admin module customization: What is a
recommended way of customization to achieve a single page editor to
edit choosen fields from standard user accouny and fields from my user
profile?

Using parameter edit_iniline in OneToOne fields includes fields of my
profile into user's page editor, by how to hide some fields of user
account and how to make some boxes 'collapsable' (how to apply all
those customization features to standard model of user account)


Thanks, Angela

Admin module, user account editing and group assignment info

2007-07-04 Thread Angela Sutanto

Hi,


I'm learning Django and trying to use/customize Admin module but I cannot
find information about group(s) a user  is assigned to.

If I open page to edit user's account, at the bottom is multiselect
box containing all existing groups.

If I select one(s) and save user profile, in DB table
auth_user_grooups I see a correct links between auth_user and
auth_group table.

But I cannot find the same information in the GUI. I use development
version of Django a few days old.

Please, could you advice what I'm missing?

Thanks, Angela
