My requirement is

I want to add new menu in existing Admin Panel. I have been searching a lot from many days but could not get any proper solution. I got some code on github like Django-Admin-Plus and django-Admin-Menu but when i installed on my machine, it could not execute and giving lots of error. Any link or video is available for this.

One solution may be view creation .

One more solution is to purchase Django Suit in around 3 to 4K rupees. Features of Django Suit is

You'd need to create your own reporting app, with view and templates for creating your reports (plus an entry in urls.py of course)

The Django Suit menu could then be updated to link to your report index page:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

"""

Django Suit Configuration Module

"""

from django.apps import AppConfig

from django import get_version

from suit.apps import DjangoSuitConfig

from suit.menu import ParentItem, ChildItem

class SuitConfig(DjangoSuitConfig):

    layout = 'horizontal'  # or 'vertical'

    name = 'suit'

    django_version = get_version()

    menu = (

        ParentItem('Client', children=[

            ChildItem(model='myapp.model1'),

            ChildItem(model='myapp.model2),

        ], icon='fa fa-example-o'),

        ParentItem('Reports', children=[

            ChildItem(url='/reports/', label="Reports"),

        ], icon='fa fa-star'),

    )
