Help w/Transactions, select_for_update!

HStoreField - Field value is an object usually, but a string when in shell

I'm working with a model that has an HStoreField field named "options". The options field on a model instance is a dictionary when running the webserver, but is a string when in the shell. This isn't simply a matter of it being coerced by the shell; the model's attribute dictionary and *dir()*

Hi, I'd like to make a mixin to set the placeholder text in the widget attrs. Reading this https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5793, it seems that extending Meta for custom fields is somewhat discouraged. Would the following be the recommended way to do it? Just adding a class variable to

Re: Architecture of multiple Sites
