Re: Custom column names in ManyToMany Field intermediate table

Hi

If I understand you correctly, you can use the db_column option for any
field to specify the name of a column in the database. For example

othertable = models.ManyToManyField('OtherTable',db_column='otid')

Instead of the database column name defaulting to "othertable_id", it will
be "otid"

There is a Model field reference page at

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/ref/models/fields

describes this and other field options
