Django: Friendlier header for StackedInline for auto generated through model?
I'm using a Django admin StackedInline, as follo开发者_开发技巧ws:
class BookInline(admin.StackedInline):
model = Book.subject.through
verbose_name = 'Book'
verbose_name_plural = 'Books with this subject'
class SubjectAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = [
BookInline,
]
It all works, but the header is pretty ugly:
Books With This Subject
Book: Book_subject object
Anyone know how I can get rid of, or change, the Book_subject object
part?
thanks!
I've never used an m2m field like this, so thanks! Learned something new.
I found 2 ways to get around the problem:
1: simply reassign the __unicode__
function with a new function
class MyInline(admin.TabularInline):
MyModel.m2m.through.__unicode__ = lambda x: 'My New Unicode'
model = MyModel.m2m.through
2: set up a proxy model for the m2m.through model and use that model instead
class MyThrough(MyModel.m2m.through):
class Meta:
proxy = True
def __unicode__(self):
return "My New Unicode"
class MyInline(admin.TabularInline):
model = MyThrough
For some reason, the (admittedly now old) accepted answer did not work for me.
This modification, however, did change the header:
MyModel.field.through.__str__ = lambda x: 'New Title'
Where field
is the ManyToMany field.
