Reading the source code of the "slice" filter in Django it looks to me like it should work on strings as well as lists. If you only need to truncate and discard the extra characters, that would be the way to go. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message beca

Re: Making a Field Optional in Admin, Admin Issues

2006-02-26 Thread hsitz
I think the 'core=true' option is used when you're defining a lookup field that is to be edited on another object's page. In the model api docs it says that 'blank = True' is the option you want to use to make entry optional, otherwise field is required to be entered, i.e., non-blank: http://www.

Making a Field Optional in Admin, Admin Issues

It seem that all the fields defined in a model turn up as required in the Admin. I would like to make a field optional in the admin. I tried "... (core=False)" ,but this does not seem to work. I also created a super user via the admin GUI and this is not working -- the super user cannot log in!

Have you taken a look at the Many-to-many relationships example? Looks like you're trying to manually create the links between tables, whereas you're supposed to use the Model API's built-in 'set_x' method. http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/models/many_to_many/ Also, are you sure t

Question about inspectdb output

I'm experimenting with 'inspectdb' so I can use Django on an existing database. I was curious to see what inspectdb would return for the tutorial tables (Polls, Choices) and was confused by the output: class PollsChoice(meta.Model): id = meta.IntegerField() poll_id = meta.IntegerField()

I'm trying to figure out how to manually create entries in a database where one table has multiple fields related to other tables. What I've tried to do does create the tables ... partially. Because there are other hidden "relationship" tables, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to populate those oth

Hi Sia. I don't believe you need a filter. Just import textwrap module and do what you want. See textwrap module on python.org in the docs for more. Regards, David Siah wrote: > Hi, > > I noticed there is no filter to truncate a string to a given number of > characters as apposed to just word

To Truncate a Word to # of chars

Hi, I noticed there is no filter to truncate a string to a given number of characters as apposed to just words. It can be useful. For instance I am trying to show contact list that includes email addresses, and given that some people have bizarrely long emails, I'd like to limit it to some value.
