implementing app specific default settings

2008-09-06 Thread HenrikV
I would like to make Django support settings defaults for applications. Ideally defaults would be loaded together with global_settings, but of course that is impossible as INSTALLED_APPS must first be configured. So my approach is to add a default setting if settings doesn't already have the attri

That's funny, as I was just talking about this with a few people at the TWID party last night. We had this problem at GCap and in a lot of cases (depending on your architecture) you do actually want to say {% extends "base.html" %} where the file is base.html, but the logic should be clever enoug

Forms and edition of an object : non-pythonic default behaviour

2008-09-06 Thread Denis Frère
When editing an object, I find it strange that untouched values are set to blank. Let's say I have a link object with a date_created field. When I use a default LinkForm to edit my links, if I don't exclude the date_created field, that field is set to blank if I don't use that field in my templat
