Hi,

I've watched the admin generator screencast several times but still wasn't able to figure out the trick:

- when it is intially generated, the html drop-down list of lookup table, eg author, was 1,
- right after custimization start, the html drop-down list starts to be meaningful, eg, showing actual author names instead of numeric 1.

the trick was not (clearly) explained in the vidoe, I'm just wondering what exactly the trick that enable it.

thanks a lot

Hi, you have to deal with __toString method of your model classes.
