How to tweak the admin?

Question

Django

I have some report of logs of actions of the user. And in fact, I don’t need the ability to add a new log through the admin panel and edit existing ones. How to implement it? That is, remove the ability to add and update the model through the admin panel?

Answer 1

Can you see these models?

class MyAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    fields = ['name', 'slug', 'date']
    readonly_fields = ['date']

    def has_add_permission(self):
        # Убрать право добавлять новые элементы
        return False

     def get_readonly_fields(self, request, obj=None):
          if obj and obj.pk:
               return self.fields
          else:
               return self.readonly_fields

If the object is saved, then all fields specified in fields will be declared read-only. Otherwise, only those specified in readonly_fields . It won't work if you don't have fields defined , but fieldsets - then set the fields manually or consider the obj._meta.fields object (if I'm not mistaken).
