You need to install django-jogging as an app in your project.

thanks for your quick reply . ok I tried with a mesagger_user. and nothing

def delete_view(self, request, object_id, extra_context=None):
self.message_user(request, “DELETING:” + object_id)
super(PostAdmin, self).delete_view(request, object_id, extra_context=extra_context)

Print will not work server-side.

You need to use some logging. You can try jogging (http://github.com/zain/jogging).

Ok thanks for you answer, but I reffer to other thing, example:

If I want to do something aditional when deleting an object in admin-site, I have to hack it like this?

def delete_view(self, request, object_id, extra_context=None):
print "-deleting-"
return super(PostAdmin, self).delete_view(request, object_id, extra_context=extra_context)

I tried (off course with the right class) but "-deleting-" is not printing.

what about that?

panchicore,

It's about setting a default for a new record. For edit & delete view, that value is already set.

However, if you want to show rows for a particular user, see below:

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
def queryset(self, request):
qs = super(MyModelAdmin, self).queryset(request)
return qs.filter(author=request.user)
