django-adminwidgetswap =============== adminwidgetswap is used for dynamically swapping out widgets from django's generated admin. This allows applications to be packaged generically without the need for WYSIWYG dependencies editors- giving the application consumer the freedom to chose admin widgets without modifying original app source. Author ====== [David Davis](http://www.davisd.com) (http://www.davisd.com) [dynamically change django admin widets at runtime (django-adminwidgetswap) blog post](http://www.davisd.com/blog/2010/04/17/dynamically-change-django-admin-widgets-at-runtime/) Usage =============== To change a widget in django's admin, just put adminwidgetswap.py on the python path, import adminwidgetswap.py and use: adminwidgetswap.swap_model_field(model, field, widget) ...to change a widget for a direct model admin's field --- adminwidgetswap.swap_model_inline_field(model, field, widget) ...to change widgets for inlines of a specific model and field --- adminwidgetswap.swap_model_and_inline_fields(model, field, widget) ...to change both the widget for the direct model admin's field as well as all inline usages for the model and field --- I usually have a project-level application called website, and I put this initialization code inside the website app's __init__.py Usage - parameters =============== model is the Model class (eg. models.GalleryImage) field is the field name you're looking to swap (eg. 'image') widget is the widget you're going to swap for (eg. widgetlibrary.ThumbnailWidget())
A simple django-admin filter to allow a boolean-like filter for IS NULL/IS NOT NULL. By default it applies to CharField, IntegerField, and FileField, but you can change this by editing NullFilterSpec.fields.

This combination of settings.py admin_reorder_tag.py and admin/base_site.html gives you the ability to define custom ordering for the apps and models in the admin app. 1. Add the setting ADMIN_REORDER to your settings.py as a tuple with each item containing a tuple of the app name and a tuple of the models within it, all defining the ordering to apply. 2. Drop the template tag code into admin_reorder_tag.py and put this into a templatetag package in one of your installed apps. 3. Drop the template code into your templates directory as admin/base_site.html
I found [snippet #1016](http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/1016/) while looking for a way to add a button to the top of an admin change form, and it didn't work. I found that it used the old admin, so I updated it to django 1.1.1
Add this to any admin changelist and your actions drop-down will be replaced with user-friendly buttons. Why mess around with templates and subclassing admin classes when you can just mangle the page with jQuery! ;-) It also adds a 'select all' label to explain the mystery top check-box (well it was a mystery to several of my clients). The line "if ($('div.actions option:gt(0)').length<=8)" checks that there aren't more than 8 actions and falls back to the drop-down if there are. Requires jQuery to be loaded.
I never found a good snippet or tutorial to get the app_list (in django.admin) on other pages except the index page. So i started asking on irc j00bar has given me a very nice answer, but first i didn't know what to do with it till now. Anyways this snippet is very handy for the people who wants this but don't know how to get it. This is special made for the django version 1.1 Installation is quite easy, it is a context processor, so download this file put anywhere in your project, i got it in a app called cms_theme (theme and template related stuff.) and put the location in your settings.py file, example: `TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ( 'django.core.context_processors.auth', 'django.core.context_processors.debug', 'django.core.context_processors.i18n', 'django.core.context_processors.media', 'django.core.context_processors.request', '****cms.cms_themes.context_processors.theme', '****cms.cms_themes.context_processors.applist', )` The '****' stuff is nothing, i replaced my company name with it. Of course you may put the context processor anywhere else, that is your choice. Good luck! Alexander
