Hi all… sorry I stumbled across an old backup and found the lost images… FIXED!

It’s probably ALL VERY OLD BY NOW THOUGH… so use with caution, I’m no longer Django-ing, so good luck…

Thanks a lot OP, this is just what I was looking for. Very nice article. However, like the previous poster, I’d really like to see the missing images.

Very nice post. I was looking for something like this. Can you please fix the images though (only the first image shows)?

Thanks a mill.

This snippet:
“self.message_user(request, “%s” % msg)”
can you expand on it?

I thought it would show a message above the change list, but nothing shows up there… any idea how to make that happen?

Thanks!

The snippet you mentioned in #3 isn’t compatible with modern django, I rewrote it for django 1.1.1. It was just what I needed, thanks!

@Christiano … er, can’t you just redirect to the referring url, having done your business in your method? That worked for me.

Ah yes, the CurrentUserField is ace, and bizarrely is mentions in a Django book, I forget its name – It might be Professional Django Applications. It is black with greenish text (I think)… Andy at isotoma will know (I borrrowed it off his desk).

What was bizarre was that I was sitting thinking, how the hell am I going to do this. I idly picked up the book at it fell open on the relevant page.

A really useful “insight” article… I look forward to expansions on subjects that you have breezed through, such as the whole image uploading routine (and how to store images outside the database, but still be able to link to them, and so on).

A quick question: where can I read more about the CurrentUserField ? There seems to be very online about this…
