Question

I have ceated several django apps and stuffs for my own fun and so far everything has been working fine.

Now I just created new project (django 1.2.1) and have run into trouble from 1st moments.

I created new app – game and new model Game. I created admin.py and put related stuff into it. Ran syncdb and went to check into admin. Model did not show up there.

I proceeded to check and doublecheck and read through previous similar threads:
Registered models do not show up in admin
Django App Not Showing up in Admin Interface

But as far as I can tell, they don’t help me either. Perhaps someone else can point this out for me.

models.py in game app:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from django.db import models

class Game(models.Model):
      type = models.IntegerField(blank=False, null=False, default=1)
      teamone = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False, null=False)
      teamtwo = models.CharField(max_length=100, blank=False, null=False)
      gametime = models.DateTimeField(blank=False, null=False)

admin.py in game app:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from jalka.game.models import Game
from django.contrib import admin

class GameAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
      list_display    = ['type', 'teamone', 'teamtwo', 'gametime']
      
admin.site.register(Game, GameAdmin)

project settings.py:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
)

ROOT_URLCONF = 'jalka.urls'

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
      "/home/projects/jalka/templates/"
)

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'game',
)

urls.py:

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *

# Uncomment the next two lines to enable the admin:
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',
      # Example:
      # (r'^jalka/', include('jalka.foo.urls')),
      (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

Hmmmm…Try change include of your app in settings.py:

From:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'game',
    ....

To:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'YOUR_PROJECT.game',# OR 'YOUR_PROJECT.Game'
