Trying to debug an issue with django-oscar where it doesn't show images, looking at its template, I found the relevant code. http://pastebin.com/64rHdLRz 1 and 2 are both printed, but 3 isn't. Indicating that the thumbnail failed, but how on earth can a call to thumbnail fail?

looks like it's using thumbnail-sorl for thumbnailing.

if I live in Israel, which TIME_ZONE should I use?

fixed, it was silent failing because pillow wasn't built with jpeg support, handy \o/

Any command to change projectname for a project

just change the directory name?

I want to use a simple tag like {% my_tag arg as variable %} but why I get "my_tag received too many positional arguments"?

djangonoob: Sounds to me like you want an assignment tag

tbaxter: thanks, it works now

Has anyone had a problem similar to this when importing JSON into a model? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19692555/why...

Any reason I can't access the admin page? I enabled it in urls.py

is it in the installed apps?

nvm, my bad :p

i've got a strange issue. it seems when I run the app from the IDE translations don't work, but it I start the app from the command line it does work.

otherwise the app runs identical

Can anyone tell me why this is happening? http://pastebin.com/sPnKvNeh

A bit confused - I can do: `from myapp.models import model` in /myapp/views.py but the same import throws an error when called from /myapp/templatetags/mytags.py - I ihave __init__.py and the tags load fine if I remove the problematic import statement.... :/

Im using a class I made for validating apikeys. This works well. But I want to use the same class for running scheduled validation, This doesnt work well. The loop of all api keys stops if one of the keys fails, get raised validationerror.

is there a way to use the same class for both purposes and keep the loop (scheduler) to continue when one key gets validationerror

Erica_Northman - put it in a try / catch block

in scheduler.py ?

try: #... except ValidationError: #do logging & continue or whatever...

aha ok. ty. one sec thou :)

will it be wrong to do continue ?

(I read you should be careful with continue)

Well, continue seems appropriate... Not sure exactly what you're trying to do? I guess the risk is that there may be consequences for silencing errors.... if they have an impact on subsequent actions in your code...

ok ty :)

What do you guys think is the best way to do a countdown timer?

i've got a forms.ModelForm which computes one field of the Model and extends cleaned_data to have it saved in the model instance. unfortunately that's not the way one should do this (doesn't work)

i found construct_instance in django.forms.models just won't pass any additional information that i add to cleaned_data when there is no formfield

You can override the form's save method to add data to the model. Of course without a model field to put it in, it still wouldn't be saved to the DB.
