Installing Django Basic Blog

Works great! thanks..

You re forgot to mension that project moved to github Although, found the idea of relationships app very useful for me.

Hi,

I did the following:

• “django-admin.py startproject blog”

• Then did exactly step by step what you told (also installed django-tagging).

• After this I wanted to do a syncdb, I got this error, could you help me out?

Regards, Laszlo

@Laszlo What version of Django are you using?

Python26, is it possible that something is missing from my installation?

That’s Python, what version of Django?

I’m having the same error, I am using django 1.2 alpha, are these apps only for < 1.0 ? I am just looking for sample apps.

I got this error when I tried to install the blog application:

TemplateSyntaxError at /admin/blog/post/add/ ‘inlines’ is not a valid tag library: Could not load template library from django.templatetags.inlines, No module named inlines.parser

both basic.blog and basic.inlines are in INSTALLED_APPS and basic is in the pythonpath.

Any ideas?

Hi. I’m also a django newbie, but here is how I solved this problem in the models.py file: Change lines

class Category(models.Model):
    ...
    slug        = models.SlugField(_('slug'), prepopulate_from=('title',), unique=True)
    ...
    class Admin:
        pass

for

class Category(models.Model):
    ...
    slug        = models.SlugField(_('slug'), unique=True)
    ...
    class Admin:
        prepopulate_from = {'slug': ('title')}

This one

class Post(models.Model):
    ...
    slug            = models.SlugField(_('slug'), prepopulate_from=('title',))
    ...
    status          = models.IntegerField(_('status'), choices=STATUS_CHOICES, radio_admin=True, default=2)
    ...
    class Admin:
        ...

for this one

class Post(models.Model):
        ...
        slug            = models.SlugField(_('slug'))
        ...
        status          = models.IntegerField(_('status'), choices=STATUS_CHOICES, radio_admin=True, default=2)
        ...
        class Admin:
            ...
            prepopulate_from = {'slug': ('title')}
