About Boolean Fields
When creating boolean fields, make sure to state them positively. They will be represented as checkmarks in the administration and it will be less confusing.
DO USE:
class Post(models.Model):
is_shown = models.BooleanField(default=True)
is_featured = models.BooleanField(default=False)
is_published = models.BooleanField(default=False)
DON'T USE:
class Post(models.Model):
is_hidden = models.BooleanField(default=False)
is_regular = models.BooleanField(default=True)
is_draft = models.BooleanField(default=True)
