Cool! Doing this from scratch is great for learning.
I wrote the same article and demo a month ago, albiet a more comprehensive and complete approach using Mezzanine (a Django based CMS). The article focuses on how most of the features needed for something like this come out of the box with Mezzanine:

- ra 13y agoProbably worth noting that stephen_mcd is the author of Mezzanine. I really like some aspects of Mezzanine, and I've used it on a couple of projects with success. But I don't like Grappelli much, I prefer django-admintools so for this reason alone I prefer FeinCMS or Ella.
- stephen_mcd 13y agoMezzanine intentionally works fine without Grappelli, just remove it from your project settings :-)
- ra 13y agoWill do, thanks. Never understood why Grappelli removes the button click from admin actions!
- arocks 13y agoThis is brilliant and looks much more comprehensive. My intention was to use Django to the fullest without the help of a third party library. Mainly to cover some of the recent features of the framework which were not covered elsewhere.
