Additional Search/Filtering based on a Model's fields in horizontal_filter

[Keehun Nam]

Hi Django Users,

Is there a preexisting solution where I can have an admin widget like horizontal_filter except it has the ability to search by the model's fields (not just the string representation in a list?

Say I have a PERSON model with fields: Name, Country, and Vehicle Type. Right now, what I'm doing is overriding __str__ on PERSON to show "Full Name (Country, Vehicle Type)" so I can search by typing into the search bar in the horizontal_filter whatever I'm looking for and get it searched that way.

However, this is not very scalable when you have more than a few fields. Any packages?

I have a few text fields (with choices) that I'd like to filter by.

Thank you,
Keehun Nam

You can add your fields in search_fields in ModelAdmin to make them searchable.
