I have

class qry485Missing(Tracking):
    class Meta:
        proxy = True
        permissions = (
            ("qry485Missing_display", "May display information"),
            ("qry485Missing_edit", "May edit information"),
        )
        verbose_name = "485 Missing"
        verbose_name_plural = "485 Missing"

This does not show up in admin to allow users access.

I have to grant superuser status to see it.

Thanks

Just an update.

This is now working in django 1.8.6

Hi frocco,

This might be related to #11154 and #17904.

Did you try running the `migrate` command? It looks like it might trigger the creation of your custom permissions.

Cheers,

Hi Manimaran,

I can't help you much with the details you provided.

Could you come with an example project to reproduce your issue?

Simon
