I have a model (Candidate) with a property (key) which return a big string.

I register this model in admin.py and add the field with:

class CandidateAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    readonly_fields = ['key']

But the field is displayed as a CharField. How to show it in a TextField widget ?

what is date of your key field. It should be TextField. – Krishna Sunuwar Dec 01 '16 at 09:54
key is a @property function in the model Candidate – Benjamin Dec 01 '16 at 09:56
