Django: How to customize the admin form for specific model

[Shoaib Ijaz]

First of all I apologize the question title can be unrelated to my query. I am also confused what I want to do because I am less familiar with django.

I want to create simple comment system. The requirement is clear that user can post comment with multiple images.Every comment should have reply. so I created following models.

#comment table 
class Comments(models.Model):
    parent = models.ForeignKey('self',null=True) // for comment reply
    description = models.TextField(max_length=1000, blank=False, null=False)

    class Meta:
        db_table = u'comments'


#images table
class CommentImages(models.Model):
    comment = models.ForeignKey(Comments)
    image = models.CharField(max_length=250, blank=False, null=False)

    class Meta:
        db_table = u'comments_images'

I have query about admin side how can i manage these things?

I want to show images list when admin view the specific comment.

Admin can view replies of specific comment.

Here i draw the example. 

So I dont want to ask about coding. I want to know what techniques will be used to change the admin view. I am using admin panel for others models too so I want to change the specific model view.

How can I get these things? Thank you

You could get this things done by customization of the corresponding admin template: templates/admin/change_form.html

This can be done per app and per model: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ref/contrib/admin/#templates-which-may-be-overridden-per-app-or-model

Good Luck

Hi,

You could have the images be inline:

class CommentImageInline(models.TabularInline):
    model = CommentImage
    extra = 0

class CommentAdmin(models.ModelAdmin):
    inlines = [CommentImageInline]

Though, you may need to use a custom widget to get the actual images to show up.
