Possible bug in admin?

[Julien Phalip]

Hi,

I can't find the exact cause of this, but it seems as though something
has changed in the admin's email widget.

For one of my project I just upgraded Django from revision 9294 to
9975.

Symptomatically, with the recent version, the email field doesn't have
the CSS class 'vTextField', which means it looks smaller than the
other text fields in the form.

Do you know if that's by design or if that's an oversight?

For now, a quick fix is to do something like this in my code:

class MyModelAdmin(ModelAdmin):

def formfield_for_dbfield(self, db_field, **kwargs):
if db_field.attname == 'email':
kwargs['widget'] = AdminTextInputWidget() # Have to do
that, otherwise the email field is bizarrely small (it doesn't have
the 'vTextField' class)...
return super(MyModelAdmin, self).formfield_for_dbfield
(db_field, **kwargs)

Thanks a lot,

Julien

It's a suckasding issue. There is a ticket with a patch open about it.

Hi Alex,

I did search the ticket system and this list before posting but
couldn't find any reference to this issue. Would be great if you could
point me out to which ticket it is.

Thanks a lot,

Unfortunately I'm on a horrible setup right now but if you check for
tickets assigned to me(Alex) it should jump out.

Ok, thanks. I assume it's #10059.
