Strike the idea to give admin control over the slug. Instead, use django-autoslug[1] and make the field not editable. Let autoslug handle conflicts by using sane values for populate_from and unique_with. Example (from the docs): # autoslugify value from a custom callable # (ex. usage: user profile models) slug = AutoSlugField(populate_from=lambda instance: instance.user.get_full_name()) Which is basically what you try to accomplish in the admin. -- Melvyn Sopacua -------- [1] https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-autoslug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
