Your admin.py file should have this code :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
from mysite.polls.models import Poll
from django.contrib import admin
from mysite.polls.models import Choice


class ChoiceInline(admin.TabularInline):
model = Choice
extra = 3

class PollAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
fieldsets = [
(None, {'fields': ['question']}),
('Date information', {'fields': ['pub_date']}),
]
inlines = [ChoiceInline]
list_display = ('question', 'pub_date')
list_filter = ['pub_date']
search_fields = ['question']

admin.site.register(Poll, PollAdmin)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Actually the minimum requirement for the application to appear in admin is this (here in docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial02/#make-the-poll-app-modifiable-in-the-admin ):

admin.py:

from django.contrib import admin

from mysite.polls.models import Poll, Choice

# `register()` optionally takes a second argument of a `admin.ModelAdmin` object

admin.site.register(Poll)

admin.site.register(Choice)

Though as Sandeep put in this code --  in this case you probably would like the `polls.Choice` inline, which would look like this:

admin.py: 

from django.contrib import admin
from mysite.polls.models import Poll, Choice

class ChoiceInline(admin.TabularInline):
    model = Choice

    extra = 1

class PollAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
        inlines = [ChoiceInline]

admin.site.register(Poll, PollAdmin)

Can you provide the contents of your admin.py in your polls app. If you've got the below code, then I'm not sure how that is happening.

class PollAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    fields = ['pub_date', 'question']

admin.site.register(Poll, PollAdmin)

Cheers,

Ryan

I'm having precisely the same issue with precisely the same side effects. Further, I am able to get output to my logs by adding a print statement to the admin.py file. So I know it's being executed, it just doesn't show up in the admin page. Running syncdb has not fixed it.

Has anyone found a solution to this? There obviously must be something else that needs to be done, as all the other apps continue to hum along just fine in the admin page.

I get no error whatsoever. I have no idea what's wrong.

There is a polls entry INSTALLED_APPS.

I'd been trying several things to see if they'd work, so I went with the absolute minimum that /should/ work:

from polls.models import Poll
from django.contrib import admin
admin.site.register(Poll)

Putting in the code you've given me does not work either.

HOWEVER, yesterday I was poking around with it quite a bit, and was able to find out the following.

1. Even though the polls app isn't showing on the index page, admin/polls/poll/ works fine.
2. Admin does register the poll program:

In [1]: from django.contrib import admin

In [2]: import polls.admin

In [3]: admin.site._registry
Out[3]: {polls.models.Poll: <polls.admin.PollAdmin at 0xaf5c88c>}

3. It should be noted that this project is an already existing one I'm trying to modify. Do you know if there's a way to 'mask' what applications end up on the admin page? If so, this may have been enabled by the upstream for my project, and I need to find a way to disable this.

[Ryan Blunden]

I'm not aware of any upstream apps 'masking' the display of other apps in the admin root page but I would try to disable all other third party (non-Django contrib) apps and see if that changes the result.

[Kelketek Titikilik Rritaa]

I found the issue. The issue appears to be in a template override for
the Admin app that the upstream provider added. When this was moved
out of the way, the standard template was loaded, and polls showed up.

[Ryan Blunden]

Awesome! Glad you got it solved.
