Manipulating Data in Django's Admin Panel on Save

Question

Ok, so here\'s the skinny:

# models.py
class Article( models.Model ):
    title           = models.CharField( max_length = 255 )
    author          = models         


        

Answer 1

class ArticleAdmin( admin.ModelAdmin ):
    fields  = [ 'title', 'body' ]
    form    = ArticleAdminForm

    def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
         obj.author = "name Here"
         obj.save()
