Thank you very much for your feedback .
The field injection looks very useful , if I still want to add custom
functions would my only option be to subclass ?

Your instincts are good; copying and/or modifying the cartridge source
will cause major problems when you are ready to upgrade.
Cartridge is just a Django app, so go ahead with custom apps. Custom apps
are particularly useful for storing your custom templates, user profiles,
and such.
To modify the Product model, use Mezzanine's field injection

Hi ,
I am trying to figure the cleanest and most efficient way of implementing
my own code alongside Cartridge .
Currently I want to add a few custom fields and functions to the
Cartridge Product model . Initially I copied the cartridge.shop folder over
to my project and edited the original definitions . However I imagine this
will cause problems later on with readability and any eventual updates.
Ideally I'd like to create an additional app e.g. custom-code that
would have my own implementation of the Product model in it's models.py ,
with the hope that I could somehow then have this Product class used
instead of the default Cartridge model.
Does anyone know if something like this is possible ?
I am loath to subclass the Product model , because if I understand
correctly I'd then have a second admin page for entering data for this
class .
Any help will be much appreciated . I've used Python quite extensively
but other than a few tutorials I am relatively new to Django .
Alternatively I'd really appreciate anyone who can point me to an example
site with good practices for customizing Cartridge .
Thanks
Andrew
