two apps against one table (admin)
All, I need to create a second application in the admin section that ports to the first applications model. The second application's admin.py would contain only 5 of the 15 fields and be set for read-only. My goal was to allow certain users the ability to do a simple search and not see some of the other data that they weren't authorized for. Any thoughts on how to proceed?

Proxy models seem to do the trick ...

What if you define your views to use only the fields that you need?

Hi This seems a very complicated solution to a fairly basic problem unless I am missing something > On Feb 7, 2014 2:24 AM, "fborell" wrote: > > > I need to create a second application in the admin section that ports > > to the first applications model.

Create a regular ListView only showing the fields you want and then add an ordinary form field to the template to input your search term (I would usually include it with pagination controls) In your view you can then filter the queryset on the search term like this #views.py def get_queryset(self): qs = super(MyListView, self).get_queryset() if 'SEARCH' in self.request.GET: search = self.request.GET['SEARCH'] qs = qs.filter(Q(field1__icontains=search)|Q(field2__icontains=search)) return qs There is more on "Complex lookups with Q objects" in https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/db/queries/ -- Drew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
