I wonder if you have a data issue with one (or a number of) products and
those that are giving problems weren't being used when you started removing
them.
Another way to test perhaps would be to script the insert of 100, 1000,
2000, etc up to 4000 products into a different app and see if it fails.
As for the admin stuff...I think/thought you could override which form admin
uses for your product. Not sure thats possible without touching satchmo
code if you haven't "extended" the Product model.
But it'd be worth attempting to create an admin.py file that points to a
custom form you write (that has the fields the way you want them), and then
pointing to that form in admin.py.
so it could look something like this:
class ProductAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
form = MyProductForm
class Media:
"""your custom javascript links here if need be"
admin.site.register(Product, ProductAdmin)
This of course assumes that you've created an "app" inside your satchmo
setup.
I could be way off here and there's alot of detail I'm leaving out, but I
would think that should work.
Anyone else care to weigh in?
