Config thyself! =============== Note: All of the configuration options fall into the Meta class. sor for instance if i write about ``columns`` property, this means a following structure::: class FailsGrid(Grid): class Meta: columns = ["author", "date"] Note: the ``model`` property is only needed, when using the basic grid class (Grid). There are two other classes (MongoGrid and ArrayGrid) in which case the ``model`` property is irrelevant. List of displayed columns ------------------------- You can change the subset of displayed columns by creating ``Meta.columns`` property, like this: :: columns = ["author", "date"] The column labels are either user-defined or are taken from django's verbose_name for the field. If you would like to provide a different label, you are free to do so: :: columns = [ ("author", "This is the label for author column"), "date" ] So in the above example, the column "author" will have a custom label (because it's a tuple) and "date" column will have a default one (because it's a string) Custom column renders --------------------- So you have established your desired columns. But you want to change the way they are rendered on the page. Let's not waste any second! :: columns = ["author", "date"] custom_columns = { "author": "fails/list_author.html" } So what you do is you create a dict with the columns being the keys, and templates used to render being the values of it. The column render file **has to** include td wrapper tag. You reference the record via ``row`` variable. ::
