Hey all

Just a quick one that I dont seem to be able to find anywhere in the
documentation; Is it possible for one of my app models to have-many
sites?

I have a model called Partner which i would like to have-many Sites,
is this possible? Or is this too ingrained in the django code itself?

Cheers

Tim

Sure - Site is just a model in the contrib 'sites' application, so you
can import and reference the Site model just like you would for any
other Many-to-many relation:

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.sites.models import Site

class Partner(models.Model):
... your attributes here....
sites = models.ManyToManyField(Site)

For sure, ive been playing with it and have seen that I can have one-
to-many (Site has-many Partners) and ManyToMany, but I was looking to
have it so that one partner has many sites? Is the ManyToMany the only
way to do this? As in terms of a DB schema, its not a many to many
relationship.

Ideally I would like to be able to determine what partner that site
belonged to, is that even possible? It just seemed to me that there
might well not be a way of doing it???

Thanks for any help in advance

Tim
