Description (last modified by CARRIERE Etienne)

Hi,

We have discovered a small regression in 1.7 with the ManytoMany representation in admin page :
Configuration to reproduce :

  • Have a ManytoManyField
  • Put the ManytoManyField as a filter_horizontal block (I am not sure if it is mandatory)

Behaviour :

  • Before the #13165 ticket commit, below the 'form-row' div, we have a second div (without class) and below this block is directly the different blocks
    • The label
    • The elements for the widget => in the same level as the other elements
    • The help paragraph

With the javascript in SelectFilter2 (in admin/js), the help paragraph is put on the first place of the div block (the one without class)

  • After the #13165, a div block ( 'related-widget-wrapper' ) has been added so that the second div looks like :
    • The label
    • A new div 'related-widget-wrapper'
    • The help paragraph

Proposal to solve
I see 2 methods to solve the bug

  • Don't use the 'related-widget-wrapper' for the ManytoMany as the ticket #13165 was made only for the classical ForeignKey
  • Modify the SelectFilter2 js to adapt to the new block

Is the bug only that the help text "Hold down "Control", or "Command" on a Mac, to select more than one." now appears misaligned to the right or is there something more?

Yes, the bug is that the JS code in SelectFilter2 file is no more operationnal . I haven't see more side effects on the ManytoMany managment by the admin interface when migrating from 1.7 to 1.8 .

Hm, the widget works fine for me and the selenium tests for it are passing. Any chance you are using a third-party app that might be causing the breakage? Can you clarify exactly what functionality isn't working or submit a patch with what change you think needs to be made?
