Description
When I make the Django admin show a "PK" column, it doesn't let me sort by that column, despite the fact that it does allow sorting by "ID", which is usually identical.
Please allow sorting by the PK as well.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
pk
is a property on model instances, not a model field.To enable sorting, we'd have to somehow set
pk.admin_order_field
to the_meta.pk.attname
. I don't see how to achieve that — especially since core shouldn't contain code for contrib apps such as the admin.Just use the real model field!
