How to add a label to a Django admin field

Question

I am trying to add some helper text to the admin for data entry people who will take over.

Something like: "Check the dropdown for a category before adding a new one."

Is django admin customization capable of doing this?

Answer 1

You could add help_text in model as,

class MyModel(models.Model):
    myfield = models.CharField(help_text='My Help Text')
