I just want to add the subscription date in the User list in the Django CRUD Administration site.
How can I do that ?
Thank you for your help
I finally did like this in my admin.py file :
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
UserAdmin.list_display = ('email', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'is_active', 'date_joined', 'is_staff')
admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
Another way to do this is extending the UserAdmin class.
You can also create a function to put on list_display
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(UserAdmin,self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
UserAdmin.list_display = list(UserAdmin.list_display) + ['date_joined', 'some_function']
# Function to count objects of each user from another Model (where user is FK)
def some_function(self, obj):
return obj.another_model_set.count()
admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, CustomUserAdmin)
In admin.py
Import UserAdmin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
Put which fields you need:
UserAdmin.list_display = ('email','is_active') # Put what you need
Thats all! It works with Django3
Assuming that your user class is User and your subscription date field is subscription_date, this is what you need to add on your admin.py
class UserAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
list_display = ('subscription_date',)
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)

During my first Django app i've managed to hit this 'road-block' where i'm trying to extend User model from my .forms file where forms.py looks like this:
#forms.py
from django import forms
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm, AuthenticationForm
class UserRegisterForm(UserCreationForm):
email = forms.EmailField(required=True)
phone = forms.CharField(max_length=50, required=False)
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ['username', 'email', 'phone', 'password1', 'password2']
class UserLoginForm(AuthenticationForm):
class Meta:
model = User
fields = ['username', 'password']
In my .models file i'm only having a 'Profile' model which is being registered within admin.py:
#admin.py
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from .models import *
from .forms import UserRegisterForm
admin.site.unregister(User)
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin, UserRegisterForm):
fieldsets = UserAdmin.fieldsets + (
(('Personal info'), {'fields': ('phone',)}),
)
admin.site.register(User, CustomUserAdmin)
admin.site.register(Profile)
...and i'm getting this back(bare in mind i've tried also passing just my form class which resulted in allot more errors):
#error
FieldError at /admin/auth/user/1/change/
Unknown field(s) (phone) specified for User. Check fields/fieldsets/exclude attributes of class CustomUserAdmin.
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/auth/user/1/change/
Django Version: 3.0.4
So the end goal would be to have another field available in my Users/'Personal info'(that's been extended within forms.py) and also would be nice to get that field when creating a new user from within the admin page. Any help/idea would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
I use the latest django for an intranet project. Well, I followed the django documentation to extend my models:
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
class Employee(AbstractUser):
DEPARTMENTS = (
('ARE', 'Area Manager'),
('IT', 'IT'),
('CAT', 'Category manager'),
('CON', 'Controling')
)
departement = models.CharField(max_length = 3, verbose_name = "Département", choices = DEPARTMENTS)
After that, I rewrited the admin.py:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin as BaseUserAdmin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from .models import Employee
# Define an inline admin descriptor for Employee model
# which acts a bit like a singleton
class EmployeeInline(admin.StackedInline):
model = Employee
can_delete = False
verbose_name_plural = 'Employees'
# Define a new User admin
class UserAdmin(BaseUserAdmin):
inlines = (EmployeeInline,)
# Re-register UserAdmin
# admin.site.register(User) # return error: django.contrib.admin.sites.NotRegistered: The model User is not registered
admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
As you can see on the 3 last line of my admin.py, if I register User model I have an error. If I comment my last lines
# Re-register UserAdmin
#admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
I haven't my User administration:
Your problem is that your project has a custom model user definition. The advised way to get the user class in this case is using get_user_model() from django.contrib.auth.
I'm just starting out with Django and I've just revamped my project so that instead of using the base user, I use an AbstractUser model, as defined in my models.py folder
#accounts/models.py
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
from django.db import models
class CustomUser(AbstractUser):
# add additional fields in here
favourite_colour = models.CharField("Favourite Colour", max_length=100)
def __str__(self):
return self.email
I've also created the creation forms that work well with my signup system
#accounts/forms.py
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm, UserChangeForm
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django import forms
from .models import CustomUser
class CustomUserCreationForm(UserCreationForm):
class Meta(UserCreationForm.Meta):
model = CustomUser
fields = ('username', 'email', 'favourite_colour')
help_texts = {
'username': 'Make something unique',
'email': None,
}
class CustomUserChangeForm(UserChangeForm):
class Meta:
model = CustomUser
fields = ('username', 'email', 'favourite_colour')
And now I am trying to edit the admin page so that I can change a users favourite_colour attribute. So far I have this in my admin.py file
#accounts/admin.py
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from .forms import CustomUserCreationForm, CustomUserChangeForm
from .models import CustomUser
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
add_form = CustomUserCreationForm
form = CustomUserChangeForm
model = CustomUser
list_display = ['username', 'email', 'favourite_colour']
admin.site.register(CustomUser, CustomUserAdmin)
Which shows me the favourite_colour of each user
My question is, how do I make a field to edit this CustomUser attribute once you've clicked on a user?, for example like this I'd welcome any help at all as I'm not too good at reading the docs. Please ask if you need more code adding to the question, I've never asked a Django question before
After some more looking I found a fieldsets option (link1, link2, link3) that can be used inside of my CustomUserAdmin code. In my CustomUserAdmin class I now have:
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
add_form = CustomUserCreationForm
form = CustomUserChangeForm
model = CustomUser
list_display = ['username', 'email', 'favourite_colour']
fieldsets = UserAdmin.fieldsets + (
('Extra Fields', {'fields': ('favourite_colour',)}),
)
I tried to extend default Django user in my project by using AbstractUser. In Django admin i couldn't see choosen user permissions.
Here is my work
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
class ExtendedUser(AbstractUser):
bio = models.TextField(max_length=500, blank=True)
birth_date = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True)
After that i add my extended user in admin.py
class ExtendedUserAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
pass
admin.site.register(ExtendedUser, ExtendedUserAdmin)
Also add AUTH_USER_MODEL in settings.py
AUTH_USER_MODEL = '_aaron_user.ExtendedUser'
I solved this problem by importing UserAdmin and register my ExtendedUser with this model in my admin.py file.
from.models import ExtendedUser
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
admin.site.register(ExtendedUser, UserAdmin)
The result is choosen groups and choosen user permissions are now available.
For those who use custom User model you need to add next code in admin.py:
filter_horizontal = ('groups', 'user_permissions',)
For example:
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from .forms import CustomUserCreationForm, CustomUserChangeForm
from .models import CustomUser
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
search_fields = ('email',)
list_display = ('email', 'is_staff', 'is_active',)
list_filter = ('email', 'is_staff', 'is_active',)
filter_horizontal = ('groups', 'user_permissions',)
class Meta:
model = CustomUser
admin.site.register(CustomUser, CustomUserAdmin)
The line filter_horizontal is taken from original django.contrib.auth.admin class UserAdmin
After that 'Choosen groups' and 'Choosen user permissions' are available.
In my case it was missing bootstrap files from static/admin|css|js
I have extended User model for django, using AbstractUser method. The problem is, my custom fields do not show in django admin panel.
My models.py:
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
class User(AbstractUser):
is_bot_flag = models.BooleanField(default=False)
My admin.py:
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from .models import User
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
Thanks
If all you want to do is add new fields to the standard edit form (not creation), there's a simpler solution than the one presented above.
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from .models import User
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
fieldsets = (
*UserAdmin.fieldsets, # original form fieldsets, expanded
( # new fieldset added on to the bottom
'Custom Field Heading', # group heading of your choice; set to None for a blank space instead of a header
{
'fields': (
'is_bot_flag',
),
},
),
)
admin.site.register(User, CustomUserAdmin)
This takes the base fieldsets, expands them, and adds the new one to the bottom of the form. You can also use the new CustomUserAdmin class to alter other properties of the model admin, like list_display, list_filter, or filter_horizontal. The same expand-append method applies.
You have to override UserAdmin as well, if you want to see your custom fields. There is an example here in the documentation.
You have to create the form for creating (and also changing) user data and override UserAdmin. Form for creating user would be:
class UserCreationForm(forms.ModelForm):
password1 = forms.CharField(label='Password', widget=forms.PasswordInput)
password2 = forms.CharField(label='Password confirmation', widget=forms.PasswordInput)
class Meta:
model = User
fields = '__all__'
def clean_password2(self):
password1 = self.cleaned_data.get("password1")
password2 = self.cleaned_data.get("password2")
if password1 and password2 and password1 != password2:
raise forms.ValidationError("Passwords don't match")
return password2
def save(self, commit=True):
user = super().save(commit=False)
user.set_password(self.cleaned_data["password1"])
if commit:
user.save()
return user
You override UserAdmin with:
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin as BaseUserAdmin
class UserAdmin(BaseUserAdmin):
add_form = UserCreationForm
add_fieldsets = (
(None, {
'classes': ('wide',),
'fields': ('email', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'is_bot_flag', 'password1', 'password2')}
),
)
and then you register:
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
I pretty much copy/pasted this from documentation and deleted some code to make it shorter. Go to the documentation to see the full example, including example code for changing user data.
The quickest way to show your extra fields in the Django Admin panel for an AbstractUser model is to unpack the UserAdmin.fieldsets tuple to a list in your admin.py, then edit to insert your field/s in the relevant section and repack as a tuple (see below).
Add this code in admin.py of your Django app
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from .models import User
fields = list(UserAdmin.fieldsets)
fields[0] = (None, {'fields': ('username', 'password', 'is_bot_flag')})
UserAdmin.fieldsets = tuple(fields)
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
Note:
list(UserAdmin.fieldsets) gives the following list:
[ (None, {'fields': ('username', 'password')}),
('Personal info', {'fields': ('first_name', 'last_name', 'email')}),
('Permissions', {'fields': ('is_active', 'is_staff', 'is_superuser', 'groups',
'user_permissions')}),
('Important dates', {'fields': ('last_login', 'date_joined')})
]
These fields are by default in Django user models, and here we are modifying the first index of the list to add our custom fields.
Try this...
models.py
from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser
# Create your models here.
class CustomUser(AbstractUser):
phone_number = models.CharField(max_length=12)
settings.py : Add below line of code in settings.py
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'users.CustomUser'
forms.py
from django import forms
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
from .models import CustomUser
class CustomUserCreationForm(UserCreationForm):
class Meta:
model = CustomUser
fields = '__all__'
admin.py
from django.contrib import admin
from .models import CustomUser
from .forms import CustomUserCreationForm
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
# Register your models here.
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
model = CustomUser
add_form = CustomUserCreationForm
fieldsets = (
*UserAdmin.fieldsets,
(
'Other Personal info',
{
'fields': (
'phone_number',
)
}
)
)
admin.site.register(CustomUser, CustomUserAdmin)
After all are done then run below command in terminal
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver
