admin

 class LogAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display=['status']

Status - (leer)

How to display status - sent or not sent here?

Answer 1

just use:

 class LogAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): list_display=['get_status_display'] 

Django documentation: get_FOO_display

Answer 2

(Updated to django 1.8) it is best to create a function

 def get_status(self, obj): return obj.get_status_display() get_status.short_description = 'Status' 

Put 'get_status' in list_display and Status, this will be the column name in the admin list.
