[Answered ]-Django – Some Models are not Editable/Createable in Django-Admin

Just had this issue

When using auto_now_add=True or editable=False in the field definition, the admin will not show the corresponding fields unless you specify them in the readonly_fields of the admin form definition.

if in models.py

class TransmissionLog(models.Model):
     dataSource = models.ForeignKey(Browser, editable=False)
     dateCreated = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, editable=False)

then admin.py needs

class TransmissionAdminManager(admin.ModelAdmin):
    readonly_fields = ['dataSource', 'dateCreated']
admin.site.register(TransmissionLog, TransmissionAdminManager)
