ModelAdmin.fields: wrapping in tuples does not have any effect (each field on separate line)

[Stefan Vollmar]

According to the current Django 4.2 documentation, this

class FlatPageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    fields = [("url", "title"), "content"]

should display "url" and "title" on the same line. We use VersionAdmin (from django-reversion) instead of admin.ModelAdmin and everything works as expected with Django 4.1.8 but in Django 4.2, additional <div> blocks cause every field to be on its on new line. Sorry if this is a known problem.

Hrm… I can't seem to reproduce this on a sample project with latest main. I can place fields side-by-side and it seems to be all working ok.

Is there any more info you could provide? Do you happen to have a small example project on github or something? 🤔 (Also can you test on main?)

(closing until getting more context)

Could you try with the Django's ModelAdmin instead? If you can't reproduce in that case, then it seems this is something to report to django-reversion.

I created a new model using admin.ModelAdmin instead of VersionAdmin (from django-reversion) leaving everything else unchanged: the problem seems indeed to be related to VersionAdmin: admin.ModelAdmin works as expected; I will report this to the django-reversion project.

Marking as "invalid" because it's not an issue in Django itself.
