Answer 1

You can use TemplateColumn to achieve it. Your tables.py should look something like this

# yourapp/tables.py
import django_tables2 as tables
from yourapp.models import yourmodel
class YourTable(tables.Table):
    name = tables.TemplateColumn('{{record.name}}')
    class Meta:
        model = yourmodel
        fields = ('name') # fields to display
