Adding custom action to UserModel's Admin page
Import User
in your admin.py unregister it, create new ModelAdmin
for it (or subclass the default one) and go wild.
It would look something like this I guess:
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
class UserAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
actions = ['some_action']
def some_action(self, request, queryset):
#do something ...
some_action.short_description = "blabla"
admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, UserAdmin)
Reference for actions.
Working example without losing all default inline actions etc.
Here we will add action which activates selected users.
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
def make_active(modeladmin, news, queryset):
queryset.update(is_active=True)
make_active.short_description = u"Activate selected Users"
class CustomUserAdmin(UserAdmin):
actions = [make_active]
admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, CustomUserAdmin)
