I have a model with some default entries in a choices field. I was wondering if it was possible for the admin to add and remove entries to the choices from the admin site. The only other option I see at the moment is to have a separate table for the entries, but the spec specifically says to only use one table and I'm fairly new to Django. The current model code is very basic, and I haven't added any forms to admin.py
, only registered my model. Example code:
class Contact(models.Model):
#some other fields here...
...
TYPES = (
('op1','option1'),
('op2','option2'),
('op3','option3')
)
option = models.CharField(
max_length=3,
choices=TYPES,
default='op1'
)
I want the super user to be able to click an add/remove type
button on the admin page to open a new box which will allow them to edit the possible types.
Turns out I had to make a new model after all. it's fine, the admin site works as it needs to.
