Thanks for the suggestion. If we had to do it all over again, possibly we'd come up with a scheme where there admin-only stuff was not hung somewhat arbitrarily off of model methods. However at this point we cannot remove support for this way of doing it without massive backwards-incompatibility. And adding a "cleaner" way without removing the old way would, I think, be more confusing than helpful.

  • Ticket #18848 – Description

    initial v1  
    11I'm working through the tutorial and noticed the following snippet:
    2 
     2{{{
    33class Poll(models.Model):
    44    # ...
    … …  
    88    was_published_recently.boolean = True
    99    was_published_recently.short_description = 'Published recently?'
    10 
     10}}}
    1111All 3 attributes admin_order_field, boolean, and short_description seem to be related to how was_published_recently is presented in the admin interface. I guess there might be other such attributes in models.Model as well.
    1212
    13 Maybe such attributes should be moved to admin.ModelAdmin?
     13Maybe such attributes should be moved to `admin.ModelAdmin`?
