Description
If you use this model:
class Page(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(maxlength=192)
default = models.BooleanField()
template = models.CharField(maxlength=256)
parent = models.ForeignKey('Page')
sequence = models.IntegerField()
visible_on_menu = models.BooleanField()
defined_header = models.CharField(maxlength=256)
date_of_creation = models.DateTimeField()
class Admin:
list_display = ['title','parent','visible_on_menu']
And try to go to the model in the admin interface, the development server just dies. There is no error, it just goes back to a command prompt waiting.
This model is to be used for a newforms-like setup that can have parent/child pages for building heirarchical navigation menus - and it will be handy to see the parent in the display.
