The __unicode__() method of a model can return optional values. For instance, if the values need to be returned from other models.
.. sourcecode:: python
def __unicode__(self):
return (u'%s%s%s') % (self.target, ('|' if self.page_type else ''), (self.page_type if self.page_type else ''))
Alternatively:
.. sourecode:: python
def __unicode__(self):
";".join([unicode(x) for x in (thing_a, thing_b, getattr(obj, "optional_attribute", None), ...etc...) if x is not None])
