This templatetag was inspired by: [Admin App/Model Custom Ordering](http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1939/). I rewrote it from scratch because it wasn't working on my install.
These are the whole scripts that worked for me as a django (1.3) persian datetime widget.

Helpful for maintaining state of a BooleanField in the querystring, eg. checkbox=0 / checkbox=1
Add login_required (or any other combination of decorators) to any view references by the urls created by patterns(...). My personal little itch as an example... urlpatterns += required( login_required, patterns('', (r'^api/', include(api.urls)), ) )
If you are interested to use Ext JS 4 with Django take a look of the project that I created: https://github.com/TofPlay/django-easyextjs4
I used the code from http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/901/ and expanded the code to have the possibility to map AD groups to the superuser attribute of Django's users. The code updates the Django users database every time a user connects, so every change in the AD is replicated to the Django database.
As it took me a save option name instead of its value. This field are solves this rare problem.
if you have multiple choice field in front and you need just a string contains chosen values this is it! Unicode encoding row related with another snippet - "Switched value typed choice field", In typical cases, you do not need to call additional methods.
Decrease the verbosity of writing view tests. Also available here: https://gist.github.com/1310549.
Sometimes I don't want to reveal a staff-only view so I created this decorator, using ``django.contrib.admin.views.decorators.staff_member_required`` as my boilerplate. Non staff members are kicked to the 404 curb. Suggestion: Create a file, ``decorators.py`` in your project (or single app) and import like so: ``from myproject.app_name.decorators import staff_or_404``.
Just a quick and dirty solution I needed to uniquely color code entries in a selection form list. It uses the hashlib to generate it's coloring.
Unfortunately the built in Django JSON serialzer encodes GeoDjango GeometyrField as WKT text. This snippet extends django's serializer and adds support for GEOJson format. Built in JSON serializer output: [{"pk": 1, ... "geopoint": "POINT (-76.5060419999999937 44.2337040000000030)" ... }] GeoJSON serializer ouput: [{"pk": 1, ... "geopoint": {"type": "Point", "coordinates": [-76.503296000000006, 44.230956999999997], "__GEOSGeometry__": [ "__init__", [ "SRID=4326;POINT (-75.5129950000000036 44.2442360000000008)" ] ] }] Note: the "__GEOSGeometry__" is a class hint as defined by JSON-RCP and used during deserilization.
This mimicks the keys used internally by the @cache_page decorators and site-wide CacheMiddleware. Now you can poke them, prod them, delete them, do what you like with them (eg, delete after you update some content and you want a specific URL refreshed).
