I've tried that method and make my own object list in the customized change_list.html. That REALLY duplicate a lot of works. Is it possible to add a hook function (middleware?) just before the change_list template being rendered? In that way, I might be able to modify the data before it is passed to template.
I had expected there is a magic function in model class to change it. : ( On Apr 14, 9:23 am, Malcolm Tredinnick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sun, 2008-04-13 at 06:20 -0700, Leon wrote: > > Hi, > > I use django admin to manage a table.
