order admin list view
The docs say that, "regardless of how many fields are in ordering, the admin site uses only the first field." To overcome this, I overrode the default manager to return a queryset ordered by the fields I want. It works fine in code (interactively), but not in the admin view. Should it? Is there a workaround besides implementing the admin interface for this class myself?

What did you do when you "overrode the default manager"? Replaced the "objects" attribute in your model? I'm not sure I'm going to be able to answer the question in any case, but some details would increase your chances.

Re: order admin list view
> some details So, I looked at the admin code and noticed that in the absence of any ordering it orders by PK DESC. I submitted a patch that would change the behavior to use the ordering returned by a custom default manager. http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/2870 Peace, David S. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
