Question

I’m trying to upload videos from django admin, but I can’t see how to validate that the user is upload only video files, and no other file types.

Any idea?

Thanks

Sorry with my English

The right way to do this is to create a custom ModelForm for your admin class, and write a clean_[video_field_name] method that validates the file and throws a ValidationError if it’s not of the correct type.

The docs for doing this are here: Adding custom validation to the admin
