Hi Dash, I believe the method for bringing models up in 1.0+ has changed from previous. Instead you need to now add the following: from django.contrib import admin in your import statements and then use the following to "register" your models with the admin interface. admin.site.register([NAME_OF_MODEL_TO_REGISTER]) -- James Purser http://collaborynth.com.au Mob: 0406 576 553 Ph: +61 2 8210 6725 Skype: collaborynth
