A lighter admin for wagtail

Project description

This app customises the wagtail admin as follows:

Rich text

Some of the less useful features are removed (HR, undo/redo, H4, H5). Headings/paragraph come first (though https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10773813/adding-something-to-the-top-of-a-json-object). The active state of the rich text (.expand) does not expand anymore

Publication flow

The “submit for moderation” is hidden (it’s mostly confusing for the type of clients we have).

Install & setup

pip install wagtail_lightadmin

Add wagtail_lightadmin to your installed apps.

Tell wagtail to use the light rich text widget in your settings_default.py:

WAGTAILADMIN_RICH_TEXT_EDITORS = {
    # Original setting
    # 'default': {
    #     'WIDGET': 'wagtail.wagtailadmin.rich_text.HalloRichTextArea'
    # },
    'default': {
        'WIDGET': 'wagtail_lightadmin.rich_text.LighterRichTextArea'
    },
}

Make sure django knows about the new static files

manage.py collectstatic –no-input
