Add this code to the end of the `<body>` of your main template and it will print out all your SQL queries with timings in the Firebug console. This uses the "django.core.context_processors.debug" template context processor, which requires that DEBUG=True and that your IP address is listed in INTERNAL_IPS.
**Problem:** A large project has lots of apps, so naturally you want a twin column admin interface, with the history out beyond those two columns... **Solution:** Involved editing the admin/index.html template, a simple modification to the adminapplist template tag, and a flag placed in each models.py for models you want in column two. **Instructions:** 1. Create the app templates/admin/index.html file by copying and pasting the provided code. 2. Copy django/contrib/admin/templatetags/adminapplist.py to your app/templatetags directory as column_adminapplist.py and edit as shown in the provided code. 3. add a \_admin\_index\_column = 2 near the top of each models.py file for each one you want to be on the right hand side.
A very plugable way to get Stanislaus jquery dynamic formset working in the admin with adding just one template. Add the following to templates/admin/APP/MODEL/change_form.html and also update the MODEL in the prefix setting. Thanks Stanislaus [http://elo80ka.wordpress.com/2009/10/10/jquery-plugin-django-dynamic-formset/](http://elo80ka.wordpress.com/2009/10/10/jquery-plugin-django-dynamic-formset/) [http://go2.wordpress.com/?id=725X1342&site=elo80ka.wordpress.com&url=http%3A%2F%2Fcode.google.com%2Fp%2Fdjango-dynamic-formset%2F](http://go2.wordpress.com/?id=725X1342&site=elo80ka.wordpress.com&url=http%3A%2F%2Fcode.google.com%2Fp%2Fdjango-dynamic-formset%2F) [http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1389/](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1389/)
As there is no straight way to re-produce the real tabular inline formsets you get in django-admin, here is how this template has to look like if you do it form your own formsets generated from formset factories.
This snippet adds a select language drop down menu in the admin bar (just after Documentation link). For this approach it's necessary to copy from admin templates the admin/base.html to the project templates (keeping the admin directory), changing just line 25 ad shown. Then it's necessary to create specified admin/change_language.html template.
I was tired browsing via tag to find snippets I saw a while ago. So I created a custom search engine with Google. To try it out go to [http://henning.cco-ev.de/django/djangosnippets.html](http://henning.cco-ev.de/django/djangosnippets.html)
Sometimes a textarea field is to small for usage. I add some JavaScript and CSS to resize all textareas a little dynamically: The JS change the size in dependence text-lengthen. You should store this snippet into a file like this: templates_django/admin/base_site.html
Template to make a galleriffic gallery for django photologue. Uses the settings from this demo http://www.twospy.com/galleriffic/example-2.html This is now the default template for the django-cms photologue plugin http://www.django-cms.org/en/extensions/cmsplugin-photologue/detail/
Template tag to obfuscate emails and other spam sensitive information. Usage obfuscate '[email protected]' 'Link display' 'Link title' obfuscate '[email protected]' 'Link display' obfuscate 'phone number' Renders complex xhmtl compliant javascript. May need caching as it renders a new code every time.
This is the example of a Django Template that makes use of the clouds example given in the link. It uses the simple CSS selector font-style which can be expressed as per centage. Check the code in http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/473/
I'm on my own personal writing challenge (see 750words.com for inspiration). I needed a way to get a dynamic word count, so I threw this together. Tied into django-basic-blog easily.
As a quick, simple way to take a list of items make a table with n items per row I added a custom template filter for modulo of an integer. To make the custom filter first create a "templatetags" directory in your application folder then add an empty file called "__init__.py" in that new directory. Finally add a file "myapp_tags.py" with the above code in it. In the template you load your custom filter with {% load pictures_tags %} and then you can make a table with n elements per row using a simple for loop and in if statement. This works because if ( for_loop.counter modulo n ) is zero ("if not" evaluates to True on zero values), then it makes a new table row. You might note that if the number of items in list is a multiple of n, there will be an empty row at the end... preventing that adds needless complexity so I left that out!
All you need to do is include the file you save this as in your other templates. The css and javascript is right in the file. Fully customizable. Very easy. Click a date to choose a single date. Click a second date to choose a range. A third click will act as a first click. note: you also will want to customize the django template specific variables in elements with ids: s_date e_date cal_month if you change those, it's not even really django specific, but i use this in my form for time off requests at work.
This is a fairly small bit template that, if placed in your_project_dir/templates/admin/prepopulated_fields_js.html will override the template that is normally pulled by the preopulated fields templatetag in the admin. The result is that you can successfully specify a ForeignKey or other field involving choices as a source for prepopulate_from in your admin.py. It works just as well when there are multiple fields of both the text and choice variety.
Based on [this snippet](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/660/), adapted to split a list into *n* number of sublists, e.g. split a list of results into three evenly-divided sublists to enable display of the results in three columns on one page with CSS. Tag: `{% list_to_columns your_list as new_list number_of_columns %}` The split_seq solution comes from a comment by Sebastian Hempel on [this post](http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/425397). More info [here](http://herself.movielady.net/2008/07/16/split-list-to-columns-django-template-tag/).
