django-category's Issues

Does this package support Python 3?

Thanks.

Sub category display issue

When adding new categories to a sub category: EG

News -> Lifestyle -> sub sub category

When you display the categories list in the parent select box as well as in meta blocks of posts it lists each "sub sub category" as its parent name instead of its own name. So basically the list starts to look like:

News
Lifestyle
Lifestyle
Lifestyle

When it should be
News
Lifestyle
Sub Sub Category
etc

please support django 3.1, python 3.8

thank you very much

An object should have only one category

Main difference between categories and tags are:

• an object can have more tags
• an object can have one category
• categories can be defined in hierarchy

(WARNING) null has no effect on ManyToManyField

Python 2.7.10
Django 1.11.3

My model:

class Post(models.Model):
    ...
    categories = models.ManyToManyField('category.Category', help_text='Taxonomy')
    tags = models.ManyToManyField('category.Tag', help_text='Tag', blank=False)

But whenever I hit the command makemigrations or migrate I get the following error on console:

WARNINGS: category.Category.sites: (fields.W340) null has no effect on ManyToManyField category.Tag.categories: (fields.w340) null has no effect on ManyToManyField

Have I done something wrong?

category all

Views

How Cann I print all categories on page?

Error with missing Sites module

As beginner to Django it took me a few moments to figure out why the package wasn't working. The Sites module is optional, however this category packages relies on it being install or else the definitions in model fail.

I suggest making this dependency / linking optional or mentioning it more explicitly. Simply adding 'django.contrib.sites' to the INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py and defining SITE_ID = 1 suffices to get the package working.

prepopulated_fields for tag and category

Hi,

Thanks for this code! It's just what the Django community needed. :)

It would be great if the tag and category admin used prepopulated_fields for the slug.

This should be a pretty simple addition to the admin.py. I could do a pull request if that will help speed things up.

Thanks!

Feature request: Category parents?

It would be cool if the category model allowed for category parents.

Before I found your code, this is the code I have been using.

Maybe that will give you some ideas?

Thanks!
