Admin-field doesn't display on - TagField property named like an existing method #176

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

I today searched for this issue for quite some time: When I have a property
"tags" which is a TagField, and also a model-method named "tags" for
retrieving those models tags, then the TagField doesn't get displayed in
the auto-admin. 

If you renamed the "tags"-method to "get_tags", it works. Django natively
supports functions named like properties.

This sounds like fundamental Python mishap. You can't name a field and method 
the same thing and expect 
them to work independently. They are all still attributes of the same class. 
One will override the other.
