Usage
=====

Calling `inplace_edit tag <https://github.com/Yaco-Sistemas/django-inplaceedit/blob/master/inplaceeditform/templatetags/inplace_edit.py/>`_ you can inplace edit any data from the database. It is important to clarify that the inline edition is not only for text fields, although it may be the more common usage. You can also have inline edition for choices, boolean fields, date and datetime fields, foreing keys, many to many, file and image fields.

::

  {% inplace_edit  "OBJ.FIELD_NAME" %}
  {% inplace_edit  "OBJ.FIELD_NAME|FILTER1|FILTER2|...|FILTERN" %}

You only should change this:

::

  <span>{{ user.first_name }}</span>
  <span>{{ user.last_name }}</span>


to this:

::

  <span>{% inplace_edit  "user.first_name" %}</span>
  <span>{% inplace_edit  "user.last_name" %}</span>
