m2m through intermediate model: template friendly syntax not working. dj1.3

[brycenesbitt]

I'm able to get an intermediate m2m model to show data, but not with the template-friendly "_set" syntax:

    category    = models.Category.objects.select_related().get(pk=pk)
    entries                 = category.entry.order_by('-temp_sort_order').filter(temp_sort_order__gte=0)
    for entry in entries:
        assert isinstance(entry, models.Entry)
        ce = models.CategoryEntry2.objects.get(entry=entry, category=category)
        pprint('1: ' + ce.wiki + str(entry.ce))
        foo = entry.ce_set.get(category=category) #'Entry' object has no attribute 'ce_set'
        pprint('2: ' + foo.wiki + str(foo.ce))  #'Entry' object has no attribute 'ce_set'
    for entry in category.ce_set.all:           #'Category' object has no attribute 'ce_set'
        pprint('1: ' + entry.wiki)

Any ideas?

class Category(models.Model):
    title           = models.CharField(max_length=1024,null=True,blank=True)
    entry           = models.ManyToManyField(Entry,null=True,blank=True,
                                             related_name='ce',
                                             through='CategoryEntry2',
                                             )

Using 'for entry in category.ce_.all', as suggested elsewhere also fails

I'm still stuck on this.  Is there any tutorial example that shows access m2m intermediate model data from a template.  The issue is the template library won't accept parameters.  Do I have to write a custom tag to get the m2m intermediate data fields?

The problem you've found isn't related to access to the relationship model
from template but that you aren't using the right names to access them.

Reading
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/models/fields/#manytomanyfield
and
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/db/models/#intermediary-manytomany
will be of great help.
