The new admin branch contains a number of changes.

Manipulators

Manipulators have a new optional argument to their constructors, follow. The argument is a dictionary indicating which fields and related objects to extract in flatten_data and examine when saving the object. The default set to follow is

• Any fields without editable=False
• Any related objects with edit_inline set on the ForeignKey relating to the class the manipulator is concerned with.

This is the set of fields shown by the admin.

insert example

manipulators have a new method, flatten_data(). This takes the data from the existing object (or the defaults in the case of an AddManipulator) and turns it into a suitable form for an HTTP post. It must be called before creating the formfield wrapper is created.

The data from a post must have manipulator.do_html2python(new_data)

called on it before it is used to repopulate a formfieldwrapper.

insert example

Templates A new tag called include which is an imporvement on ssi parsed. See #598. Improved error reporting when debug is on. See #603. Also note that loaders must return a tuple of (source, filename) rather than just the source of a loaded template.
