How can I override Django admin views?

How can I override Django admin views?

To override Django admin views, you can create a custom admin class and override the methods you need.

Can you give me an example of overriding the change view?

Sure! You can override the change_view method in your custom admin class like this:

class MyModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    def change_view(self, request, object_id, form_url='', extra_context=None):
        # Your custom logic here
        return super().change_view(request, object_id, form_url, extra_context)

What if I want to add custom context to the view?

You can add custom context by modifying the extra_context parameter in the change_view method. Just pass a dictionary with your context variables.

Is it possible to override the list view as well?

Yes, you can override the changelist_view method in a similar way to customize the list view.
