Description
Am using rev 6058. After updating to this revision from a pre-unicode revision, I find that search_fields in admin do not work when the field in question is a foreign key field. There is no error message - the full list is just returned.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
this was a false alarm, the docs make it clear: You can also perform a related lookup on a ForeignKey with the lookup API “follow” notation. I did this and it worked.
