Description

After upgrading to Django 1.6, i have a problem with formfield_for_foreignkey.

This is my code:

class MatchScoreIntInline(admin.TabularInline):
    model = MatchScoreInt

    def formfield_for_foreignkey(self, db_field, request, **kwargs):
        if db_field.name == "partial":
            kwargs["queryset"] = Partial.objects.filter(...my filters...)
        if db_field.name == "subscriber":
            kwargs["queryset"] = Subscriber.objects.filter(...my filters...)
        return super(MatchScoreIntInline, self).formfield_for_foreignkey(db_field, request, **kwargs)

The super method override my kwargsqueryset, only for "subscriber" db_field because of this code:

queryset = self.get_field_queryset(db, db_field, request)
        if queryset is not None:
            kwargs['queryset'] = queryset

get_field_queryset method return a new ordered queryset if the related admin has "ordering" parameter.
So I removed the ordering parameter from my ModelAdmin and everything works fine.

Why I cannot override the queryset with formfield_for_foreignkey method when the related_admin has "ordering" parameter set?

This regression was introduced in [d9330d5b]. It looks like the solution would be to avoid calling get_field_queryset() if 'queryset' in kwargs. This fix probably also applies to formfield_for_manytomany().

The code from the second block in the ticket description is from django/contrib/admin/options.py.
