23588	list_display method attributes description links	eliasvc	Curtis Maloney	"Hello,

This is a piece of code that first describe the use of method attributes in callback functions used in list_display on Django tutorial, page two [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial02/]
{{{
class Question(models.Model):
    # ...
    def was_published_recently(self):
        return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)
    was_published_recently.admin_order_field = 'pub_date'
    was_published_recently.boolean = True
    was_published_recently.short_description = 'Published recently?'
}}}

The problem is none of those method attribute definitions take you somewhere where it describes what they do. It can be very confusing for a person starting out. In fact, it would be awesome if there was some kind of index of method attributes one can use since their descriptions on the admin page are scattered."
