Description

Here's a first version of a patch that adds a short modelname => number-of-deleted-objects-of-that-model map to the admin object deletion confirmation page.

The patch is by no means RFC, it's only meant to be a first sketch in order to get feedback about the idea in general. I've also done some refactoring as preparation for implementing this feature. To be specific, there was some code that mixed logic and presentation that is now a bit more separated; although there's still potential to reduce complexity by factoring get_deleted_objects *into* the views (i.e. removing the helper function entirely).

Great idea!

comment:2 by Jonas H., 12 years ago

Any comments on the patch or the idea in general? Feature requests? Site design/structure?

comment:3 by Jonas H., 12 years ago

Btw there's some serious DRY violation in that particular area of the admin, both in the views and templates. If anyone with a bit more knowledge of the admin code base has any tips on how to refactor this, please let me know.

I quite like the idea, pity we didn't get much traction on this ticket.
Maybe you should send a Pull Request on github, it might be a easier way for core dev to rebase the patch on master and test it.

Patch needs improvement: set

Anyone is welcome to rebase the patch and test it. I would just say that I'd prefer that commits separated refactoring of logic from the adding of new features if possible as this makes the diffs smaller and easier to review.

Simplified admin delete confirmation templates using {% elif %}.

Thanks jonash for the initial patch; refs #20133.

Ignore the previous PR, it breaks many things on Django.
This new one is more straightforward and should pass all Django tests.

Looks simple enough, but needs tests and release notes.
