Use this option as an alternative to ``fieldsets`` if the layout does not
matter and if you want to only show a subset of the available fields in the
form. For example, you could define a simpler version of the admin form for
the ``django.contrib.flatpages.FlatPage`` model as follows::
If you need to achieve simple changes in the layout of fields in the forms
of the "add" and "change" pages like only showing a subset of the available
fields, modifying their order or grouping them in rows you can use the
``fields`` option (for more complex layout needs see the
:attr:`~ModelAdmin.fieldsets` option described in the next section). For
example, you could define a simpler version of the admin form for the
``django.contrib.flatpages.FlatPage`` model as follows::
class FlatPageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
fields = ('url', 'title', 'content')
In the above example, only the fields 'url', 'title' and 'content' will be
displayed, sequentially, in the form.
In the above example, only the fields ``url``, ``title`` and ``content``
will be displayed, sequentially, in the form.

``fields`` can contain values defined in :attr:`ModelAdmin.readonly_fields`
to be displayed as read-only.
.. versionadded:: 1.4
To display multiple fields on the same line, wrap those fields in their own
tuple. In this example, the ``url`` and ``title`` fields will display on the
same line and the ``content`` field will be displayed below them in its
own line::
class FlatPageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
fields = (('url', 'title'), 'content')

This ``fields`` option should not be confused with the ``fields``
dictionary key that is within the ``fieldsets`` option, as described in
the previous section.
