Sébastien - on your original post: you didn't provide any useful title or ticket links in your post. That may have stopped readers engaging on the list. No one knows ticket numbers, but some people will be interested when they see a post on "the admin autocomplete". Links would make it easy to catch up. More context makes it easy to engage.

But perhaps the default copy-paste messages the fellows use could have a little more empathy towards those who are unfamiliar. The majority of Trac users are only around for one ticket, or a few.

I suggest a reword to something like "I appreciate you'd like to reopen the ticket, but please *follow the triaging guidelines with regards to wontfix tickets* and take this to the django-developers mailing list." > Carlton: The admin's role is not to be a general application development > platform 💯 agree here. My gut reaction is the same. Most organizations who try to build their "back office" within the admin end up digging themselves into a bit of a hole with their customizations. Building your own pieces is normally a better approach when you need a certain level of customization. Just yesterday I was advising a client who wanted some different autocomplete customizations. I also recommended trying django-select2, as Johannes wrote on the ticket ( https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/32628#comment:5 ). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
