Re: register a new panel in overrides.py

 

Neither of those works.

When I use "settings.register(ec2list.EC2ListPanel)"  I get this error:
"Error registering panel: 'module' object has no attribute 'EC2ListPanel'"

If I just use:  settings.register(EC2ListPanel), I get the same sort of error:
Error registering panel: name 'EC2ListPanel' is not defined
