To fix it you can just return unicode(self.comment_post). This will
return the unicode coersion of the comment_post, which is presumabley
what you were intending.

coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, Post found
I kinda know what the problem is here but don't know how to fix it.
I have this model class Comment(models.Model):
comment_post = models.ForeignKey('Post')
comment_date = models.DateTimeField('Date comment made')
comment_body = models.TextField()
comment_spam = models.BooleanField(default=False)
comment_author = models.CharField(max_length=5000)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.comment_post
and when i true to add a comment using the admin pages i get :
coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, Post found
presuambly this is something to do with return self.comment_post but
what should i do to fix it
thanks
