Greetings, I am currently working on a long term project that uses Django 1.1.1, and we are planning to release it around march of 2010. Now while surfing I came upon to this article which says the planned release date of Django 1.2.0 is March 9, 2010. Now I am a bit confused. If I should continue developing under 1.1.1 or start develo...

I'm having an issue where a call to the url template tag in Django is appending the site name (I don't want it in there.) Let's say that the site name is 'mysite'. So for example: <a href="{% url myapp.views.myview "myparam" %}">Link text</a> is producing: <a href="/mysite/foo/bar">Link text</a> when I want it to produce: <a hre...

I ran into an interesting "oversight" in the Django {% cycle %} template tag. This has been listed as a bug, but I'm wondering if there is a workaround for it? {% for r1 in range_0_2 %} {% for r2 in range_0_3 %} {{ r1 }}-{{ r2 }}-{{ cycle 'even' 'odd' }} {% endfor %} {% endfor %} This yields: 0-0-even 0-1-odd 0-2-even 1-0-odd...

I have things configured to email me when any errors occur which until yesterday was a great thing - there aren't many errors, but sometimes the users don't ...

I.e. if a blog entry has a user, you have to do a few things: - Add a foriegnkey field - Make the foreign key field editable = False - On save/load make sure that request.user matches entry.user This is what I could come up with. Is there an easier way to do...

So I'm late to the party here, but I just came across IGNORABLE_404_STARTS and IGNORABLE_404_ENDS. I'm trying to make use of this, but it isn't working for me. For instance, I set: IGNORABLE_404_ENDS = ('mail.pl', 'mailform.pl', 'mail.cgi', 'mailform.cgi','favicon.ico', '.php') If I go to http://www.mysite.com/test/mail.cgi, I will ...
If I want to make sure that a view is listed as having public access, is there a decorator equivalent to @public_access which would be the opposite of @login_required and make it clear that the view should be publicly accessible always? One use case I have in mind is to automatically add "@csrf_exempt" to all public views in addition to...
I'm using django 1.1 and flatpages. It works pretty well, but I didn't manage to get a catchall or default page running. As soon as I add a entry to url.py for my startpage, the flatpages aren't displayed anymore. (r'^', 'myproject.mysite.views.startpage'), I now flatpages uses a 404 hook, but how do you configure the default website...
I'm trying to use django-tinymce to make fields that are editable through Django's admin with a TinyMCE field. I am using tinymce.models.HTMLField as the field for this. The problem is it's not working. I get a normal textarea. I check the HTML source, and it seems like all the code needed for TinyMCE is there. I also confirmed that the...
