Comment (by charettes):
Replying to [comment:3 schinckel]:
> One issue with this is that if you had two apps that both attempted to
add something (like an inline) to the UserAdmin, only one of them (the
last in INSTALLED_APPS?) would take.
This might feel a bit hackish but you can do the following:
{{{
#!python
#my_nth_app/admin.py
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth.admin import UserAdmin
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from my_nth_app.models import MyNthAppModel
class OneOfMyNthAppInline(admin.TabularInline):
model = MyNthAppModel
fk_name = 'user'
#hackish
RegisteredUserAdmin = admin.site._registry.get(User)
class MyNthAppUserAdmin(RegisteredUserAdmin):
inlines = RegisteredUserAdmin.inlines + [OneOfMyNthAppInline]
# Re-register UserAdmin
admin.site.unregister(User)
admin.site.register(User, MyNthAppUserAdmin)
}}}
I know tickets aren't the right place to provide such examples but since
it's the only way (I'm aware of) to achieve what @schinckel was trying to
do without coupling all the apps I think it was worth posting until a
proper solution can be documented.
