AS OF DJANGO 1.9 THIS PROJECT IS UNNECESSARY! Widget for displaying edit and delete links alongside foreign key admin widgets

django-relatedadminwidget

Widget for displaying edit and delete links alongside foreign key admin widgets

Also see this project: django-admin-enhancer

Installation:

1. pip install django-relatedadminwidget

2. Add "relatedwidget" to settings.INSTALLED_APPS

3. You may want to run your project's ./manage.py collectstatic

4. In your applications' admin.py, let the model admins inherit from RelatedWidgetWrapperBase like in this example:

   from django.contrib import admin from relatedwidget import RelatedWidgetWrapperBase

   class MyModelAdmin(RelatedWidgetWrapperBase, admin.ModelAdmin): pass

   admin.site.register(MyModel, MyModelAdmin)

It also works with TabularInline and StackedInline! Remember the order of inheritence, always put RelatedWidgetWrapperBase first!

Troubleshooting

If you get a TemplateDoesNotExist error on 'relatedwidget/widget.html', you might have to add django.template.loaders.eggs.Loader to your settings.TEMPLATE_LOADERS.

Credits

User nasp did most of the work, I just updated it for Django 1.4 and packed it as an app.

django-relatedadminwidget's Issues

replace .live by .on in jquery

Deprecated 'live' function (http://api.jquery.com/live/) in relatedwidget.js caused javascript error, breaking the grappelli interface i'm using. I understand it's a jquery version issue. It could solve it quite easily by replacing the two live() function calls on lines 36 and 48 by on()

Implementation for raw_id_fields in admin

This is a great app but it would be great to be able to have the same functionality for raw_id_field widgets.Is this something that might be on the roadmap?

Is it possible to implement this as a custom widget instead of as a ModelAdmin mixin?

There would be a lower chance of conflicting with other mixins that way.

Running pip install upgrades django to 1.4

Which wasn't what I wanted on my nice Django 1.3 project.

Had to add 'onclick='return showAddAnotherPopup(this);' to the links in the template

Wouldn't open a new window when adding/editing, and didn't return to original model after saving, most inconvenient. Picked up the solution from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8850273/django-edit-model-form-in-popup-in-admin.
