The problem is line 357 in http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/contenttypes/generic.py, where the test is with equal but should be subcalss instead. Example in models: {{{ from django.db import models from django.contrib.contenttypes import generic from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType as CT class ContentType(CT): class Meta: proxy = True ordering = ('app_label', 'model') class ModelWithGeneric(models.Model): content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType) object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField() contentObject = generic.GenericForeignKey('content_type', 'object_id') class ObjectWithGeneric(models.Model): media = generic.GenericRelation(ModelWithGeneric, content_type_field='content_type', object_id_field='object_id') }}} Example in Admin: {{{ from django.contrib.contenttypes import generic from django.contrib import admin from apps.models import * class GenericInlineAdmin(generic.GenericTabularInline): model = ModelWithGeneric class ObjectAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): inlines = ( GenericInlineAdmin, ) admin.site.register(ObjectWithGeneric, ObjectAdmin) }}} Error is: fk_name '<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey object at 0x0319A1F0>' is not a ForeignKey to ContentType -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14408> Django <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
