Re: Newforms Admin - Overriding the Save Method of a ModelForm
Hey Marc - that's what I thought! But in NFA - it seems the save method isn't called! For instance: class ModelUserAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): form = ModelUserForm ... class ModelUserForm(forms.ModelForm): def clean(self): # This method will successfully be called from the add_view or change_view # of NFA print 'ModelUserForm >>> clean()' super(ModelUserForm, self).clean() def save(self, commit=True): # This method -WILL NOT- be called from the add_view or change_view # of NFA - but I would like it to be! print 'ModelUserForm >>> save()' super(ModelUserForm, self).save(commit) On Jul 2, 3:50 am, Marc Garcia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Sure, > > just remember to return > > super(YourModelForm, self).save(commit) > > in it. > > On Jul 2, 9:10 am, John Boxall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi everyone! > > > I'm just trying out newforms admin - it's fantastic.

Newforms Admin - Overriding the Save Method of a ModelForm
Hi everyone! I'm just trying out newforms admin - it's fantastic. I can't wait until this makes it's way into trunk - A question - I'd like to add custom behavior when a object is saved in the admin console. I'm following this example of how to add custom behaviour to validate an object: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/NewformsHOWTO#Q:HowdoIaddcustomvalidation I would expect to be able to add a save() method to my ModelForm and have it be called when I hit save... how ever this does not seem to be the case! Has anyone had any luck overriding the save method of a model form in NFA?
