Edit Django User admin template

Question

I need to edit the template shown for editing a specific user. I need to display some additional data that doesn't fit in with an include-style.

I apologise for the short question... but that's pretty much all there is at the moment.

Answer 1

If you can't accomplish what you want with just subclassing admin.ModelAdmin, you can create a directory "admin/auth" in your template directory and put a "change_form.html" in there. In this template you can override blocks that are available e.g. {% block after_related_objects %}.

Have a look at django/contrib/templates/admin/change_form.html to see how they do stuff, e.g.:

{% block extrahead %}{{ block.super }}
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../../jsi18n/"></script>
{{ media }}
{% endblock %}

appending stuff to the extrahead block.
