Adding extended Profile model into custom user models admin

Question

How can i add extended Profile model fields (fields which are not available in custom user model fields) into custom users admin users.admin?

Answer 1

I would recommend that you override the User model.

from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractBaseUser, BaseUserManager, \
                                        PermissionsMixin
class UserManger(BaseUserManager):
    """
       Add extra calling functionalities here
    """
    pass


class User(AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin):
    """Custom user model"""
    pass

    objects = UserManger()

This is the basic format. Add the extra profile fields in the model

in setting.py add

AUTH_USER_MODEL = '{{ app_name }}.{{ model_name }}'
# eg. 'core.User'
