Is there a way to do isinstance/issubclass in a Django template? I realise I can write my own templatetag, but I’m surprised this isn’t possibly which makes me think I’m either doing something wrong or missing something obvious.
I wish to display two different segments of markup, depending on which type of item I’m displaying whilst iterative over my collection. Thanks!
If all of these inherit from a common base type, but you need to know which type it is, you may want to just implement a method on the base that returns the type – then you can call
if foo.get_type == 'type1'(or whatever) in your template.
