In case you need to add multiple images in your django admin panel, you can use this article to solve this problem.
Creating new class for images storing
Django admin does not have embedded functions for adding multiple images, that’s why we need to create new class for storing images:
class ProjectGallery(models.Model):
class Meta:
verbose_name = "Project image"
verbose_name_plural = "Project images"
project = models.ForeignKey('Project', on_delete=models.SET_NULL, null=True, blank=True, verbose_name='Project')
gallery = models.ImageField('Image', upload_to ='./projects_gallery/', null=True, blank=True)
This class has two fields. One of them is a foreign key to the parent class and the other field is needed for storing images.
Registering changes in admin panel
Now we need to register ProjectGallery in admin.py file:
from .models import Project, ProjectGallery
class ProjectGalleryAdmin(admin.StackedInline):
model = ProjectGallery
extra = 0
class ProjectAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_display = ("title", "page", "site_hru", "is_published",)
inlines = [ProjectGalleryAdmin]
admin.site.register(Project, ProjectAdmin)
In these classes we used admin.StackedInline and inlines. This allows user to add images from parent class Project.
It would be nice if we could keep our code a bit more concise.
