Django admin - how to hide some fields in User edit?

[galgal]

How can I hide fields in admin User edit? Mainly I want to hide permissions and groups selecting in some exceptions, but exclude variable doesn't work :/

[leo]

try to modify this file "Python26\Lib\site-packages\django\contrib\auth\admin.py"

find this line
        (_('Groups'), {'fields': ('groups',)}),

comment this line you will remove groups

Obviously the proposal was... fundamentally wrong.

Create your own UserAdmin, unregister the one registered by
django.contrib.admin and register your own.

That's my code now - how to hide groups for example?

admin.site.unregister(User)

class UserProfileInline(admin.StackedInline):

    model = UserProfile

    filter_horizontal = ('cities',)

    extra = 1

    max_num = 1

    filter_horizontal = ('cities',)

class UserProfileAdmin(UserAdmin):

    inlines = [UserProfileInline,]

    list_filter = ('userprofile__type','userprofile__cities',)

    search_fields = ['userprofile__type', 'username', 'userprofile__cities__name', 'email', 'first_name', 'last_name',]

    # show users list - if user_id=1 show all, else: show id's > 1

    def queryset(self, request):

        qs = super(UserProfileAdmin, self).queryset(request)

        if request.user.id == 1:

            return qs

        return qs.filter(id__gt=1)

admin.site.register(User, UserProfileAdmin)

Have you tried reading the Django Admin docs? [1] [2]

[1] https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/contrib/admin/
[2]
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.exclude

P.S. please fix your e-mail client not to translate "Re:" in responses'
subjects.

[galgal]

Yes I read it.  exclude = ('groups',) throws:

Caught KeyError while rendering: "Key 'groups' not found in Form"

That's because the stock UserAdmin defines fieldsets in which 'groups'
is a field, you need to modify the fieldsets, too. [1]

[1]
https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/auth/admin.py#L27

[galgal]

I made it in that way, and it works:

def get_fieldsets(self, request, obj=None):

        if obj:

            if request.user.id == 1:

                return self.declared_fieldsets

            else:

                if obj.get_profile().type==1:

                    return (

                        (None, {'fields': ('username', 'password')}),

                        (_('Personal info'), {'fields': ('first_name', 'last_name', 'email')}),

                        (_('Important dates'), {'fields': ('last_login', 'date_joined')}),

                    )

                else:

                    return (

                        (None, {'fields': ('username', 'password')}),

                        (_('Personal info'), {'fields': ('first_name', 'last_name', 'email')}),

                        (_('Permissions'), {'fields': ('is_active', 'is_staff', 'user_permissions')}),

                        (_('Important dates'), {'fields': ('last_login', 'date_joined')}),

                    )

        else:

            return self.add_fieldsets

Remember that you need to exclude the field from the form, too, if you
don't want malicious attempts to inject the groups to work.

[galgal]

Ok but like I said in previous post, exclude = ('groups',) etc doesn't work :/

It does, you just need to override both exclude / fields _and_
fieldsets.

The exception you've mentioned resulted from the fact that you've
excluded the field from the form, but the fieldsets still defined it as
one of the elements, so the form failed.

[galgal]

Any idea how to overwrite it dynamically?

        self.exclude = ('user_permissions',)

Use tuples instead of lists, they're cheaper. And lists don't require
the trailing comma.

Why not using super().get_fieldsets() when there is no object or your
user isn't 1?

Should be obj=obj, not obj=None, you're always getting a new user form.
