I have a Page model that uses the sites framework and I've added a save_model method on its admin class to check if the template or sites collections are empty. If they are, I want to populate them with default values.
Why not do this in the model declaration? - I can't seem to populate a default for the template field in my model as it uses choices - I can't seem to populate a default for a many to many field as I have no idea how to :) For some reason, if sites are empty, saving obj does not save the value for sites? def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change): obj.save() changed = False if obj.template == '': changed = True obj.template = Page.TEMPLATE_CHOICES[0][0] if obj.sites.all().count() == 0: changed = True obj.sites.add(Site.objects.get(pk=settings.SITE_ID)) if changed: obj.save() -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
