Hi Philip, The field is required because you haven't allowed it to be blank - and django admin requires fields to have the following attributes if you don't require them: Active = models.CharField(max_length=1, null=True, blank=True)
Otherwise the GUI will mark the field as required. See here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/models/fields/#blank Regards, Andréas 2018-08-06 12:54 GMT+02:00 Phlip Pretorius <[email protected]>: > Hallo, > > I have created a model that looks like this: > > ======================================================== > class ActionType(models.Model): > """The type of actions that must be taken at a meeting with respect to > agenda points e.g. 'Decide', 'Take Note'etc. > """ > AtpCode = models.CharField(max_length=4) > AtpDesc = models.CharField(max_length=80, null=False) > Active = models.CharField(max_length=1, null=True) > > class Meta: > unique_together = (('AtpCode'),) > > def __str__(self): > """Return a string representation of the model""" > return self.AtpCode > ======================================================== > > I am using SQLite as I am developing. > > When I deploy this model to SQLite, the Active field is forced to be > non-null although explicitly indicate the null=True. > > Any idea why this is happening?
