Please note that the result of this is that if you use 'editable=False' this field is not visible in the admin at all. As far as I know there is no good way (see below) of putting read only data in an admin page.
You could however, create a read only widget (there are some examples to be fund on the internet), however, if you still need to save the form, you nee dto keep that data in a hidden form field which opens up the possibility of people fiddling with POST data. Last resort, create your own custom view. maeck. On Nov 20, 11:46 pm, Lars Stavholm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Epinephrine wrote: > > I have a field that should never be edited by hand.
