    copied!<p>I have the following sets of models (abbreviated for clarity):</p> <p><strong>First set:</strong></p> <pre><code>class Web(Link): ideas = models.ManyToManyField(Idea, blank=True, null=True) precedents = models.ManyToManyField(Precedent, blank=True, null=True) categories = GenericRelation(CategoryItem) @permalink def get_absolute_url(self): return ('resources-link-detail', [str(self.slug)]) </code></pre> <p>which is a child of:</p> <pre><code>class Link(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=250) description = models.TextField(blank=True) website = models.URLField(unique=True) slug = models.SlugField(unique_for_date='pub_date') ... @permalink def get_absolute_url(self): return ('link-detail', [str(self.slug)]) </code></pre> <p><strong>Second set</strong></p> <pre><code>class ResourceOrganization(Organization): ideas = models.ManyToManyField(Idea, blank=True, null=True) precedents = models.ManyToManyField(Precedent, blank=True, null=True) categories = GenericRelation(CategoryItem) @permalink def get_absolute_url(self): return ('resources-org-detail', [str(self.slug)]) </code></pre> <p>which is a child of:</p> <pre><code>class Organization(Contact): name = models.CharField(max_length=100) org_type = models.PositiveSmallIntegerField(choices=ORG_CHOICES) ... @permalink def get_absolute_url(self): return ('org-detail', [str(self.slug)]) </code></pre> <p>which is a child of:</p> <pre><code>class Contact(models.Model): description = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True) address_line1 = models.CharField(max_length=250, blank=True) address_line2 = models.CharField(max_length=250, blank=True) slug = models.SlugField(unique=True) ... class Meta: abstract = True </code></pre> <p>The "ResourceOrganization" model is properly overiding the get_absolute_url method and is adding the "categories" generic relation.</p> <p>The "Web" model is not.</p> <p>I'm at a loss to figure out why. Would appreciate any insight.</p> <p>P.S. I'm realizing that there may have been better ways to implement this functionality, but I'm stuck with it for the moment until I can refactor and would like to get it working.</p> <p>Thanks.</p>
