Question

from django.contrib.admin.actions import delete_selected
from Test.app.models import Post
from django.contrib import admin

class PostModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    fields= ('gender',)
    list_display = ('gender',) 

    def mark_deleted(self, request, queryset):
         print "deleted"
         return delete_selected(self, request, queryset)

actions = [mark_deleted,]

admin.site.register(Post, PostModelAdmin)

I just called the default bulk delete functions. It produces the following error.

Exception Type: AttributeError
Exception Value:    
'PostModelAdmin' object has no attribute 'model'

What I need to pass for ‘modeladmin’ attribute?

def delete_selected(modeladmin, request, queryset):

New issue

All the error are gone now. But none of the objects got deleted. This action always says like ‘No Objects selected’. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

The action is expecting a ModelAdmin instance, not a class. self is the right thing to pass here.
