Starting from a vanilla mezzanine application, I can't seem to add a caption to the blog post model.
Reference URL instructions: http://mezzanine.jupo.org/docs/model-customization.html In settings.py: EXTRA_MODEL_FIELDS = ( ( "mezzanine.pages.models.BlogPost.caption", "CharField", ("Caption",), {"blank": True, 'max_length': 150}, ), ) >From this point, running *python ./manage.py makemigrations* returns *No changes detected* So, I decided to try and create an app called UpdateBlogPost in Django from django.db import models from mezzanine.blog.models import BlogPost class BlogPost(BlogPost): caption = models.CharField("Caption", max_length=200) tags = models.CharField("Tags", max_length=100) featured_position = models.IntegerField("Featured Position", default=0, null=True) Running makemigrations on the above produces a migration, but perhaps experienced Django developers will already realize that it produces OneToOneField migration to relate UpdateBlogPost.BlogPost to the Mezzanine model. A broader, more useful question to be answered would be: How do I modify/extend a model from a 3rd party library from within one of my own django apps? Also, where is the code below supposed to go, after the above succeeds? It is currently sitting in my UpdateBlogPost application's admin.py. from copy import deepcopy from django.contrib import admin from mezzanine.blog.admin import BlogPostAdmin from mezzanine.blog.models import BlogPost blog_fieldsets = deepcopy(BlogPostAdmin.fieldsets) blog_fieldsets[0][1]["fields"].insert(1, "caption") class MyBlogPostAdmin(BlogPostAdmin): fieldsets = blog_fieldsets admin.site.unregister(BlogPost) admin.site.register(BlogPost, MyBlogPostAdmin) Help will be greatly appreciated! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Mezzanine Users" group.
