Default filter in Django admin
Note that if instead of pre-selecting a filter value you want to always pre-filter the data before showing it in the admin, you should override the ModelAdmin.queryset() method instead.
How can I change the default filter choice from 'ALL'? I have a field named as status which has three values: activate, pending and rejected. When I use list_filter in Django admin, the filter is by default set to 'All' but I want to set it to pending by default.
