My 2 cents - You will have to store the user preferences in a settings file on the server. I would suggest to use a JSONField for the same if you are using the PostgrSQL. Otherwise you will have to create a separate model. Saving settings in model will take more efforts. Using JSON for this would be perfect. Store this JSON on the User Model in the django, so you are basically adding an extra JSONField to the user model in django. If you store this data on a different model, you will end up writing one extra sql/orm query to fetch the settings. So, save yourself that trouble and store the settings on the user model.
Whatever user can configure, create respective key value pairs for the same. Then in every template where these settings would be required, access them using the variable *request.user.settings* (assuming you named it settings). In the templates, wherever the user can customize his view, you would write the if blocks to check if the current user has selected the respective settings or not. Accordingly they would be rendered *DYNAMICALLY*.
