django-fhadmin 1.3.0

Dashboard and global navigation extension

Allows grouping of apps on the dashboard and offers the same view on each admin page by sliding down the bar on top after a small delay when hovered.

Configuration example:

from fhadmin import FHADMIN_GROUPS_REMAINING
_ = lambda x: x

FHADMIN_GROUPS_CONFIG = [
    (_('Main content'), {
        'apps': ('page', 'medialibrary', 'blog'),
        }),
    (_('Modules'), {
        'apps': ('links', FHADMIN_GROUPS_REMAINING),
        }),
    (_('Preferences'), {
        'apps': ('auth', 'rosetta', 'external', 'sites'),
        }),
    ]

The extension is activated by overriding both admin/base_site.html for the slide-down navigation and admin/index.html for the dashboard, and adding fhadmin to INSTALLED_APPS so that the template tags and static files are found. The following two templates are contained in fhadmin/templates/admin as well.

admin/base_site.html:

{% extends "admin/base.html" %}
{% load i18n %}

{% block extrahead %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{{ STATIC_URL }}fhadmin/fhadmin.css" />
