copied!<p>I agree that its hard to do template editing so, I create a custom widget to show an <code>anchor</code> on the admin change view page(can be used on both forms and inline forms).</p> <p>So, I used the anchor widget, along with form overriding to get the link on the page.</p> <p><strong>forms.py:</strong></p> <pre><code>class AnchorWidget(forms.Widget): def _format_value(self,value): if self.is_localized: return formats.localize_input(value) return value def render(self, name, value, attrs=None): if not value: value = u'' text = unicode("") if self.attrs.has_key('text'): text = self.attrs.pop('text') final_attrs = self.build_attrs(attrs,name=name) return mark_safe(u"<a %s>%s</a>" %(flatatt(final_attrs),unicode(text))) class PostAdminForm(forms.ModelForm): ....... def __init__(self,*args,**kwargs): super(PostAdminForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) instance = kwargs.get('instance',None) if instance.blog: href = reverse("admin:appname_Blog_change",args=(instance.blog)) self.fields["link"] = forms.CharField(label="View Blog",required=False,widget=AnchorWidget(attrs={'text':'go to blog','href':href})) class BlogAdminForm(forms.ModelForm): ....... link = forms..CharField(label="View Post",required=False,widget=AnchorWidget(attrs={'text':'go to post'})) def __init__(self,*args,**kwargs): super(BlogAdminForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) instance = kwargs.get('instance',None) href = "" if instance: posts = Post.objects.filter(blog=instance.pk) for idx,post in enumerate(posts): href = reverse("admin:appname_Post_change",args=(post["id"])) self.fields["link_%s" % idx] = forms..CharField(label=Post["name"],required=False,widget=AnchorWidget(attrs={'text':post["desc"],'href':href})) </code></pre> <p>now in your <code>ModelAdmin</code> override the <code>form</code> attribute and you should get the desired result. I assumed you have a <code>OneToOne</code> relationship between these tables, If you have one to many then the <code>BlogAdmin</code> side will not work. </p> <p><strong>update:</strong> I've made some changes to dynamically add links and that also solves the <code>OneToMany</code> issue with the <code>Blog</code> to <code>Post</code> hope this solves the issue. :)</p> <p><strong>After Pastebin:</strong> In Your <code>PostAdmin</code> I noticed <code>blog_link</code>, that means your trying to show the <code>blog</code> link on <code>changelist_view</code> which lists all the posts. If I'm correct then you should add a method to show the link on the page.</p> <pre><code>class PostAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): model = Post inlines = [SubPostInline, DefinitionInline] list_display = ('__unicode__', 'enabled', 'blog_on_site') def blog_on_site(self, obj): href = reverse("admin:appname_Blog_change",args=(obj.blog)) return mark_safe(u"<a href='%s'>%s</a>" %(href,obj.desc)) blog_on_site.allow_tags = True blog_on_site.short_description = 'Blog' </code></pre> <p>As far as the showing <code>post</code> links on <code>BlogAdmin</code> <code>changelist_view</code> you can do the same as above. My earlier solution will show you the link one level lower at the <code>change_view</code> page where you can edit each instance.</p> <p>If you want the <code>BlogAdmin</code> page to show the links to the <code>post</code> in the <code>change_view</code> page then you will have to include each in the <code>fieldsets</code> dynamically by overriding the <code>get_form</code> method for <code>class BlogAdmin</code> and adding the link's dynamically, in <code>get_form</code> set the <code>self.fieldsets</code>, but first don't use tuples to for <code>fieldsets</code> instead use a list. </p>
