It needs to be indented at the same level as the field definitions for the model. The effect of having it the way it is will be that SearchKeywords will display using the default unicode() method for a model instead of your customized one.

You do not have a GenericForeignKey in the SearchKeyword model, just a regular ForeignKey. admin.StackedInline is what you want for a regular ForeignKey. (You aren't getting far enough to see a problem resulting from this, but you will when you fix the error you are hitting, unless you are really using a GenericForeignKey in SearchKeyword.) > class PageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): > inlines = [ > KeywordInline, > ] > > admin.site.register(PageAdmin) > > The first positional argument to admin.site.register is a model (or a sequence of models). You've not specified the model, only the ModelAdmin. You need to add a first argument here to specify the model you are registering (I'd guess FlatPage, since that is what your inlines have a ForeignKey pointing to.)
