annot identify image file '/home/ellis/CB/Django-Ecommerce/media_root/default.jpg'

1. Import necessary modules in your Django model:

from django.db import models
from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe

1. Define a function in your model to display the image in the admin panel:

class YourModel(models.Model):
    image = models.ImageField(upload_to='your_upload_path', default='default.jpg')

    def image_tag(self):
        return mark_safe('<img src="{}" width="50" height="50" />'.format(self.image.url))

    image_tag.short_description = 'Image'

1. Register the model in your admin.py file and include the image_tag function:

from django.contrib import admin
from .models import YourModel

class YourModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ('image_tag',)

admin.site.register(YourModel, YourModelAdmin)

1. Ensure that your media settings are correctly configured in your settings.py file:

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media_root')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

1. Make sure your project's main urls.py includes the media configuration for development:

from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static

urlpatterns = [
    # Your existing URL patterns
]

if settings.DEBUG:
    urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

1. Run the following management commands to apply migrations:

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

1. Ensure that the 'Pillow' library is installed for handling image-related functionalities:

pip install Pillow

1. Verify that the 'default.jpg' file exists in the specified media root directory.

2. Restart your Django development server:

python manage.py runserver
