[Answered ]-Use Django Flatpages with TinyMCE

by

1👍

✅

I did something different, and I was missing the “fields” property in meta Class, following the new code, tested and running:

from django.contrib.flatpages.admin import FlatpageForm, FlatPageAdmin
from django.contrib import admin
from django import forms
from django.contrib.flatpages.models import FlatPage
from tinymce.widgets import TinyMCE


class FlatPageForm(forms.ModelForm):
    content = forms.CharField(widget=TinyMCE(attrs={'cols': 80, 'rows': 30}))

    class Meta:
        model = FlatPage
        fields = '__all__'


class PageAdmin(FlatPageAdmin):
    """
    Page Admin
    """
    form = FlatPageForm


admin.site.unregister(FlatPage)
admin.site.register(FlatPage, PageAdmin)

The accepted answer wasn’t working for me (Django 1.10) so this is what worked for me.

  1. I first created a new app called content in my project to keep organized.

    manage.py startapp content

  2. I added this to my admin.py

    from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.flatpages.admin import FlatPageAdmin
from django.contrib.flatpages.models import FlatPage
from django.db import models
from tinymce.widgets import TinyMCE


# Register your models here.
class PageAdmin(FlatPageAdmin):
"""
Page Admin
"""
formfield_overrides = {
    models.TextField: {'widget': TinyMCE(attrs={'cols': 100, 'rows': 15})},
}


admin.site.unregister(FlatPage)
admin.site.register(FlatPage, PageAdmin)

  3. Finally run manage.py collectstatic, restart your webserver and refresh.
