Hi Timothy, thanks for your advice.
I'm sorry, I've been quite busy lately on other stuff so I had to leave
this apart. You are right, maybe I am overcomplicating things. I have
simplified my code to:
def get_readonly_fields(self, request, obj=None):
if not request.user.groups.filter(name__exact='administration'):
return ('is_featured', )
return ()
That should make the "featured" checkbox read only for those users not
in the administration group. But it doesn't, when the flow reaches the
line /return ('is_featured', )/, the user can check/uncheck the box in
the admin interface. Do you see any flaw here? Thanks again!
Roberto
