How to override and call super for response_change or response_add in django admin

django, django-admin, nonetype, python, python-3.x

Solution

You need to actually return the result of the call to super().

return super(MyModelAdmin, self).response_change(request, obj)

Problem

I would like to override `response_change` in a ModelAdmin in order to update a field in the parent window. After doing the update, I'd like to give control back to the overriden `response_change`. A simplified version of what I have tried is: ``` class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): def response_change(self, request, obj): // perfom my actions super(MyModelAdmin, self).response_change(request, obj) ``` But I get an AttributeError - 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'has_header'. Maybe, I'm not using super properly...?
