I'm trying to customize the url of entries in zinnia to show slugs of entries only, ie .../blog/slug. I've been following closely the documentation here - I've overwritten the get_absolute_url method, I've added the view and configured the urls and registered the _base model in django settings - yet the error persists:
zinnia_customized models.py:
from django.db import models
from zinnia.models_bases.entry import AbstractEntry
class EntryWithNewUrl(AbstractEntry):
"""Entry with '/blog/<id>/' URL"""
@models.permalink
def get_absolute_url(self):
return ('zinnia:entry_detail', (),
{'slug': self.slug})
class Meta(AbstractEntry.Meta):
abstract = True

from django.views.generic.detail import DetailView

queryset = Entry.published.on_site()
template_name_field = 'template'

urlpatterns = [

zinnia_customized app urls/entries.py:
from django.conf.urls import url
from django.conf.urls import patterns
from zinnia_customized.views import EntryDetail
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^(?P<slug>[\w-]+)/$', EntryDetail.as_view(), name='entry_detail'),

zinnia_customized admin.py:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy as _
from zinnia.models.entry import Entry
from zinnia.admin.entry import EntryAdmin
class EntryUrlAdmin(EntryAdmin):
"""blank"""
admin.site.register(Entry, EntryUrlAdmin)
settings:
...
ZINNIA_ENTRY_BASE_MODEL = 'zinnia_customized.models.EntryWithNewUrl'
...
And the error:
NoReverseMatch at /blog/
Reverse for 'entry_detail' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{'slug': u'pies'}' not found. 1 pattern(s) tried: [u'blog/(?P<year>\\d{4})/(?P<month>\\d{2})/(?P<day>\\d{2})/(?P<slug>[-\\w]+)/$']
My problem was that I've created a folder called urls in my zinnia_customized, therefore django wasn't sure if it was supposed to use the folder or urls.py
