Re: Admin functionality available on public site

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hi if your just looking to steal great swathes of the fabulous admin
code the clever people at django wrote then I did find a natty way of
doing that.

In my views.py I created functions that look a bit like this

from django.contrib.admin.views.main import add_stage, change_stage

def do_change_stage(request, app_label, module_name, object_id):
return change_stage(request, app_label, module_name, object_id)

It may be breaking some cardinal rule of django but it seems to work
you can then mess around with making custom templates by puting them in
templates_dir/admin/app_name/module_name

If people don't jump down my throat crying "You can't do that" and
you're interested I can give you more details

Regards 
Charlie

Here is what I have found, you have two major ingredients for this:

Forms and Manipulators: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/forms/

Create/Update/Delete Generic Views:
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/generic_views/#using-create-update-delete-generic-views

Mix and match these two in a good cocktail sauce and you have 
admin-style ui forms ala django.  (Mmm, tasty.)

I'm not entirely clear on what you want.  Are you looking for admin ui forms 
outside of the admin application?  If so, I think you'll have to roll your 
own.  If not, then the following might help as it demonstrates
