#django

if i want to display an intermediate admin action page in the style of the admin site, what do i inherit?

ah, found the "overriding admin templates" section

admin/base_site.html

aha, thank you

mattmcc: Hey, thanks for your advice earlier that got static files working!

mattmcc: However, now I can't seem to upload files. I set MEDIA_URL to "/media/", and MEDIA_ROOT to "/var/MySite/www/media/". I chmodded the www directory to 777 so I know it's not a permissions error. I also created another alias for the media directory like I did for static. Any ideas?

What happens when you attempt to do an upload?

mattmcc: It redirects to an error page and just says "Sorry, an error occured".

mattmcc: The Cherokee logs don't show anything strange

How are you attempting the upload?

mattmcc: It's using a model imageField, I'm not sure how it's trying to do it but it worked on my dev server

mattmcc: The post is returning a 500 error as well. Does Django log errors anywhere?

If you tell it to. But your WSGI server should be, at any rate.

mattmcc: Hum, okay I'll check for that. I need to take a break from this for a while though, problem after problem. Thanks for your help though!

https://stripe.com/docs/stripe.js anyone here use stripe with django?

I'm using their stripe.js to create tokens, however it overrides any required fields on my forms.

Howso?

I'm using the "required" attribute in my html input tags (i think thats why it sucks), the js submits the form when the button is pressed

Eh, as I read that doc, their JS doesn't submit the form.

"form$.get(0).submit();"

Right, sorry, I meant their actual JS.

That's just an example of the JS you have to write

So if you don't want the form to submit, just don't do it at that point.

oh....

hmm

is there a way to prevent saving an object from within a pre_save signal?

No, that's generally the job of validation.

so override .save?

err extend
