Incidentally, I meant to say add a "display column" in the admin list
page through list_display and not add a database column to your model.
Basically, this "display column" would show output of a custom function
that's defined in your model. You could even use get__url in
your list_display directly. See below for more on that.

I see.
The anchor is rendered like {{ myapp.files.file }}
> which turns out to be something like href="http://1.2.3.4:8000/media/upload/20060914R4.oak.pdf; >
> upload/20060914R4.oak.pdf .
A better way to render the anchor is to use the get__url
method in your model where fieldname is the name of the FileField. See:

Yes, reuse is a good thing ;)

adding images to my content
Hello, I can serve my static files no problem, in apache I did SetHandler None and an Alias /media /homedir/djangostuff/myapp/media. The trick comes in the process or flow of adding files/images into a body of text. I'm adding content to the db through the admin and using markdown in the content for rendering html ... works great. Now I'd like to add images to the post , embed them inline: in markdown that's ![alt text][/my/path/image.jpg "title"] The admin does not show the full path of the uploaded file, so the end user would need to fiddle with the path ... trying to smoothen this process so the url that is displayed in admin is the full path or at least a path that works. Or god forbid drag and drop! ;) I got some hints that the best way to do that would be to use a custom admin template. admin/myapp/mymodel/change_form.html. Any more help? Thanks. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
