How to add clickable links to a field in Django admin?

Use the format_html utility. This will escape any html from parameters and mark the string as safe to use in templates. The allow_tags method attribute has been deprecated in Django 1.9.

from django.utils.html import format_html
from django.contrib import admin

@admin.display(description="Firm URL")
class LawyerAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ['show_firm_url', ...]
    ...

    def show_firm_url(self, obj):
        return format_html("<a href='{url}'>{url}</a>", url=obj.firm_url)
    

Now your admin users are safe even in the case of:

firm_url == 'http://a.aa/<script>eval(...);</script>'

See the documentation for more info.

add show_firm_url to list_display

Define a custom method in your LawyerAdmin class that returns the link as HTML:

def show_firm_url(self, obj):
    return '<a href="%s">%s</a>' % (obj.firm_url, obj.firm_url)
show_firm_url.allow_tags = True

See the documentation.
