My first experiment with Django is a kind of wiki that involves being
able to add a variety of different types of pages, each with their own
set of fields. The obvious way to do this would be to create a base
model page class which various page types inherit. But I can't imagine
how the Django
If anyone else stumbles on this post and has a similar problem then
it's worth noting that the value field was a varchar doing an numeric
range evaluation on it. Even though it does in fact work some times

converting the value

This won't work as you expect. The first file named 'foo' will be saved
And for the record, blank=True does make it not required.

I don't know about horrible, it depends what you're going for. I was

Overriding save() is much cleaner, you're right. But I don't think the

Oh.. and the obvious error here - The Python boolean truth symbol is

What you want to use in your template is a reference to the media URL prior

It might be that it treats new lines as \r\n when you are using some
windows-* encoding for your html pages. Check the source code. I would
rather use UTF-8 in any case.

I think you need to look at "Signals". It's an implementation of

Hi.
Im not sure, but i guess You are using generic views.
If yes, make a wrapper of your view, and put that code in that wrapper
function.
Besides overriding save of the model works fine.
But i personally would put such code in my own form manipulator, you
keep clean views and your model also.
Yes, I know. Sorry, should have been more specific:
the problem is, that the second part of the url pattern comes from a

The solution i did take was application specific. I don't think that
django provides any hookups for such actions.
