Hello, Mezzanites--
I am new to Mezzanine and Django (though not to Python, fortunately)
... I have worked through the Django and Mezzanine tutorials, and I am
starting to work on a real site.
(BTW, for some reason I was initially planning to build the site with
Drupal. Uergh. Mezzanine is really a breath of fresh air after that.)
One of the key features I want to implement is a kind of shared
workspace for a small group of collaborators (2-3 people at first, and
I'll be surprised if the number ever reaches 20), where people can
share documents and comment on each other's work. I think either a
blog or a forum could be used for this purpose, but neither is quite
right. I think the best thing would be a rich text page with comments.
So I determined to create a 'CommentedPage' type. Oh, and by the way,
I want to use the builtin threaded comments. I know, I know, Disqus.
Sorry, but I really do not want to use Disqus if I can help it.
Anyway, I think I have partially succeeded in implementing the new
page type; I can add a CommentedPage via the admin interface, but when
I try to view the result I get a template rendering error. Here's
what's going on:
1. Created a 'workspace' app.
I haven't put it into pip-installable form yet, but it lives in a
separate directory. The structure looks like:
test/
pyenv/ # virtualenv stuff
salix_site/ # the actual site
workspace/ # the app
__init__.py
admin.py
models.py
templates/
workspace/
commentedpage.html
tests.py
views.py
2. Models.py looks like this:
from django.db import models
from mezzanine.pages.models import Page
from mezzanine.core.models import RichText
from mezzanine.generic.fields import CommentsField
class CommentedPage(Page, RichText):
comments = CommentsField()
3. Admin.py looks like this:
from django.contrib import admin
from mezzanine.pages.admin import PageAdmin
from .models import CommentedPage
admin.site.register(CommentedPage, PageAdmin)
4. And the template, commentedpage.html looks like this:
{% extends "pages/page.html" %}
{% load mezzanine_tags comments comment_tags %}
{% block main %}{{ block.super }}
{% editable page.commentedpage.content %}
{{ page.commentedpage.content|richtext_filters|safe }}
{% endeditable %}
{% comments_for page %}
{% endblock %}
When I attempt to view the page, I get:
AttributeError at /junk/my-ahh-commented-page-you-know/
'Page' object has no attribute 'comments'
... and a whole bunch more, but I'm not sure what is relevant.
However, a couple of relevant points:
* According to the Debug Toolbar, the 'commentedpage.html' template is
being called.
* However, the actual error appears to be happening in the builtin
'comments.html' template:
Error during template rendering
In template /PATH/TO/templates/generic/includes/comments.html,
error at line 16
... where line 16 reads:
{% comment_thread object_for_comments %}
Can anyone give me a hint as to what is going on here? Thanks!
