I am getting this error:

'str' object does not support item assignment

on the line 8 of admin_shortcuts/templates/admin/index.html:

6   {% block breadcrumbs %}
7       <div class="admin_shortcuts">
8           {% admin_shortcuts %}
9       </div>
10  {% endblock %}

Any ideas?

I've customized my admin app. Copied base.html, base_site.html and index.html to my app. Shortcuts doesn't work at all when you do that - the settings are just ignored. So I copied index.html, templates/admin_shortcuts, static/admin_shortcuts, static/.DS_Store and the template_tags folder to my app. Now I get KeyError at /admin/:

Error during template rendering
In template c:\shop\ccmr-joe\templates\admin\index.html, error at line 8

The project should probably check for permissions, before displaying the link - like the admins does.

Hi,

I install django-admin-shortcuts via PIP and when I add 'admin_shortcuts' to your INSTALLED_APPS, just before 'django.contrib.admin', on my admin site I have this error

I use django-grappelli, maybe that I have this error.

TemplateSyntaxError at /admin/

I don't know if this should be considered a bug due to the sheer age of Django 1.3 but since this package supports Django 1.2 upwards I think it should be mentioned that there are some bugs in the templates and how to solve them for people who come across them.

admin/index.html

{% load i18n admin_static admin_shortcuts_tags %}

must be changed to

{% load i18n adminmedia admin_shortcuts_tags %}

------- // -------

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static "admin/css/dashboard.css" %}" />

must be changed to

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% admin_media_prefix %}css/dashboard.css" />

admin_shortcuts/style.css

{% for class in classes %}.admin_shortcuts .shortcuts li a.{{ class }} { background-image: url('{% static "admin_shortcuts" %}/{{ class }}.png'); }{% endfor %}

must be changed to

{% for class in classes %}.admin_shortcuts .shortcuts li a.{{ class }} { background-image: url('{% get_static_prefix %}admin_shortcuts/{{ class }}.png'); }{% endfor %}

Other than that it seems to work fine. Thank you for an awesome package 👍

is it possible to enable the right to left option?

So the doco doesn't say that you need a context in your admin_shortcuts but the code does
line 20 in:
admin_shortcuts/templatetags/admin_shortcuts_tags.py

I've removed that line in mine as it was causing a keyerror
Please excuse me if I've done something wrong I'm new to git

It would be useful to be able to use count and count_new at the same time. For example by placing the count value just below the title.

I may be a tad stupid but the instruction on how to change icons was pretty baffling. Turns out you go to site-packages/templatetags/admin_shortcuts_tags.py and add to CLASS_MAPPINGS. In my case I wanted the url 'transcription_project_changelist' to use the archive icon (in lieu of something better). So I added

['project', 'archive'],

to the bottom of the list. Didn't work. After some fiddling around I finally realized that the code iterates thru the list and returns the first match, which, since mine was at the end, was

['change', 'pencil'],

Solution: put my choices at the top. Works like a charm.

(previous conversation moved here)

It's not possible at the moment, but it would probably be easy to add by changing the admin/base_site.html template to include something like this at the top:

{% load admin_shortcuts_tags %}

{% block breadcrumbs %}

{% block extrastyle %}<style type="text/css">{% admin_shortcuts_css %}</style>
{{ block.super }}
{% endblock %}

{% block extrahead %}{{ block.super }}{% admin_shortcuts_js %}{% endblock %}

Adding the above code to base_site.html will not work because of other templates overriding the breadcrumbs tag.

So, there are two options to make this work:

1. the above code can be implemented in base.html BUT by removing the breadcrumbs tag and adding the actual admin_shortcuts_css tag and admin_shortcuts_js tag to the already existing block_extrastyle and block_extrahead tags appropriately. This is kind of hacky though because alot of other templates i.e. change_form, change_list, and app_index all are using the breadcrumbs tag. This leads to those other templates going to render the breadcrumbs tag but there is none in the parent template.

2. a cleaner approach is to do the above code change NOT in base.html and actually in the templates you wish to override them in i.e. change_form,change_list, and app_index.

This appears to be written to appear on the index page only. I made a feeble attempt to use it in all admin pages by changing

{% block breadcrumbs %}
<div class="breadcrumbs">
<a href="{% url 'admin:index' %}">{% trans 'Home' %}</a>
{% if title %} &rsaquo; {{ title }}{% endif %}
</div>
{% endblock %}

in the admin base.html to

{% block breadcrumbs %}
<div class="admin_shortcuts">
    {% admin_shortcuts %}
</div>
{% endblock %}

but I get

Invalid block tag: 'admin_shortcuts', expected 'endblock'

Any chance this is an easy fix?

Is this plugin compatible with django version 2.0?

Hello Ales,

I’ve tried this nice app and I’ve noticed that icons are more-less required, at least I did not find possibility to not add any icon. Also links to font awesome resources are hardcoded in extrastyle block, base_site.html file.

Is it possible for you to add possibility to override these hardcoded resources and option to not include any icons intentionally (without magical guess)?

I would like this feature for internal / intranet / maybe even offline application where reaching external Font Awesome website may cause problems.

some icons are not aligned correctly, for example 'mail'

Running pip install django-admin-shortcuts throws me this error. I suppose it has to do with the Python version as installing on a Python 3.6 environment doesn't raise issues.
Python version: 3.4
Package Version: 2.0.0

I've fixed it temporarily by installing version 1.2.7

Can this be fixed?
Thank you

Thank you for this great plugin.

I am using django-admin-interface and django-admin-shortcuts caused a theme change in the index.html pages.

The solution I have found is the following:

• I installed django-apptemplates
• I have created the following file in my templates:

/admin/index.html:

{% extends "admin:admin/index.html" %}
{% load i18n admin_static admin_shortcuts_tags %}

{# django-admin-shortcuts changes these blocks #}

{% block breadcrumbs %}
<div class="admin_shortcuts">
    {% admin_shortcuts %}
</div>
{% endblock %}

{% block extrastyle %}<style type="text/css">{% admin_shortcuts_css %}</style>
{{ block.super  }}<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static "admin/css/dashboard.css" %}" />
{% endblock %}

{% block extrahead %}{{ block.super  }}{% admin_shortcuts_js %}{% endblock %}

{# end changes #}

Hi, When i write like this 'count_new': 'project.utils.count_app_product_product', it comes below result. How to get count of my products. app name: app_product, model name: product

Thanks,

Hi - the new version 2.0.0 overwrites the admin/base_site.html which is also overwritten by djangocms_admin_style.
Unfortunately only one can take precedence.. I've started on a fix (https://github.com/mcldev/django-admin-shortcuts) that will create a second app 'admin_shortcuts_django_cms' (can be called whatever)... that will create overrides of DjangoCMS Admin Style specific templates only, leaving their base_site template.
There are still some formatting issues - but they could be handled by DjangoCMS Admin Style?

Hey there!
Thank you for your great work here, I really like the idea!

Unfortunately it looks like it doesn't work with Grappelli, right?

Cheers

i think the admin page gets cached and so do the shortcuts resulting in count being wrong

Hello

Now that I have the pip module installed in site-packages/ I want to modify index.html.
This is outside of my project folder and my GIT repository.
What is the right way to apply the changes?

Thank you
