Re: Tweaking the admin title to display the model name

Yeah I know - the django admin platform is really great - add the grappelli interface to it and you can use it as a proper backend for a project. :-)

Nice to see that I was able to push you in the right direction.

Regads,

You can override the admin change form for the model you want and then change the title.

You can check here for some information: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-admin-templates

That's fantastic! Thanks Andréas ... here's the entire change in 2 lines:

{% extends "admin/change_form.html" %}
{% block title %}{{ original }}{% endblock %}

:-)

Cheers

    Currently in an admin model change form, the admin page title is
    "Change <verbose_name_plural>"

    How can I tweak the code or the template so it displays an
    attribute of the model instance instead?

    I'm trying to work on a few instances at the same time and having
    the model instance identifier would be very useful.

    Thanks

    Mike
