Awesome, thank you! I'm have some more questions for you if you don't mind. When I add a note, now there is a combo box with a list of users to choose from. I would like for this combo box to not be visible and for it to automatically choose the user submitting the note (The user currently logged in).

Thanks for your help. I tried the following: from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import User # Create your models here. class Note( models.Model ): content = models.TextField() user = models.ForeignKey( User ) However, now when I visit the page that lists my notes, I get the following error: OperationalError at /admin/core/note/ (1054, "Unknown column 'core_note.user_id' in 'field list'") Any idea what is going on? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Admin page: How to add a column for user that added an item
Hi, I currently have the following model: class Note( models.Model ): content = models.TextField() I've setup the admin page to allow users to add "notes", which basically lets them fill in the content variable. However, on the admin page I want to add a column to show the user that added that note. This would be the username in the admin page that they logged in with. I hope that I can do this without adding any information to my Note class, but if I must then I don't mind. So column 1 should be the user that added that note, and Column 2 should be the note itself. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Thanks for the help guys. I'm guessing javascript files are also considered static, since they're referenced by the HTML as well? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Developing django on windows
Hi, I plan to host my production copy of my django project on a linux/ apache setup, however for my development I want to do a checkout through subversion and work exclusively on windows as I develop. This means I want to be able to run just the test server for django on windows while I develop to test my changes. Is there a quick installer somewhere for the testing functionality of django? This might entail installing the entire django API, but the searching I've done so far has involved a lot of work just to get django working in windows. Thanks in advance. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Need suggestions on subversion structure for project
Hi, First, let me start by explaining what my goals are: - Have a django project & its apps in version control - Have all of the templates the apps will use in the same version control - Have all static content (images, css, etc) in the same version control. So far, this is the directory structure I've come up with: django/ my_project/ app1/ app2/ templates/ static/ images/ styles/ Is this a good structure? Using this structure, I can work on everything involved in making my website through a single working copy in Subversion. Do you guys have any better suggestions? My main concern with the structure I presented above is how I will configure Apache2 to handle serving static content. Also, the fact that Django requires an absolute path for the templates directory makes this more of a management nightmare. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
