Limiting the entry that loaded in django admin.

[bolang]

Hi all,
need some input here.

I have a site with > 15000 images, using django photologue.

When we create a Post (that has Images field in it) from django admin,
all of the images will be loaded in a dropdown.

Before this, it was not create any problem.
Now, after the number of images getting bigger, big chance we got
timeout when try
to create/edit Post.

I think it is possible to limit the loaded images (although i don't know
how to do it).
But, which images that should be loaded?

Any advice?


Thanks before.

Try using raw_id_fields:

Cheers, Andrew.

raw_id_fields is the first step.

also look at django-ajax-selects, which gives you a lot of interesting abilities.
