Django Admin: Order by value on related Foreign Key

Question

I\'m trying to sort a Django Admin list page by a specific value in the objects\' related foreign key set.

Specifically, in the below code, I want the ContentAdmin v

Answer 1

I solved this by extending the get_queryset method of the ContentAdmin class. After that, it was just a matter of getting the right ORM query

def get_queryset(self, request):
    qs = super(ContentAdmin, self).get_queryset(request)
    return qs.filter(score__name='Twitter').order_by('-score__score')

For Django 1.5 and earlier, the method was queryset.

def queryset(self, request):
    qs = super(ContentAdmin, self).queryset(request)
    return qs.filter(score__name='Twitter').order_by('-score__score')
