How to change a users language from admin site in Django?
I'm implementing Django's I18N to translate a project and works really smooth. The thing is that I'm working on someone else's project and there was a field in the users profile named "language" which is a charfield which is filled with either "esp" or "eng". Therefore it was possible to change the any users language from the admin site. Is there a way to change any users language from the django admin site using Django's I18N? Note: I'm not trying to change the admin site language. Im trying to enter to the admin site being the user A and modify the user B to change the language user B sees the site. In my setting I have the "es" and "en" language code available. -

Django - Show foreign key value instead of object in the drop down form
I am trying to implement a form that uses two models connected through a foreign key. Below is my current setup: Primary Model: class Firstlist(models.Model): TBlname = models.CharField(max_length=100) def __str__(self): return self.name Second Model: class SecondList(models.Model): Status = models.CharField(max_length=100) Tblnameref = models.ForeignKey(Firstlist) def __str__(self): return self.name Form: class MainForm(forms.ModelForm): class Meta: model = SecondList fields = ('Tblnameref','Status') def __init__(self,*args,**kwargs): super(SecondList,self).__init__(*args,**kwargs) self.fields['Tblnameref'].empty_label = '-- Select --' Template: <form action="" method="POST">{% csrf_token %} {{form.Tblnameref}} <button>Validate</button> {{form.Status}} <button>Validate</button> </form> However when I test this, the values in drop down show up as "Tblnameref object (1)" instead of the actual value. Can someone please advise how to fix this so that the drop down shows actual value than the object. Thank you for the help -
Django - URL problem for user profile view and edit profile view
In my Django project, specifically in my accounts app, I have 2 simple views, one allows users to view their profile (or other users' profiles), and the other one allows users to edit their own profile. My account.urls looks like this from django.urls import path from accounts.views import ProfileView, EditProfileView app_name = 'accounts' urlpatterns = [ path('<slug:username>/', ProfileView.as_view(), name='profile'), path('edit/', EditProfileView.as_view(), name='edit'), ] Everything works great, but if an user creates an accounts with the word edit as their username, they will NEVER be able to edit their profile, since the first URL pattern will always be matched. What's the best way of solving this problem in Django? I know I could change my URLs to something like: urlpatterns = [ path('<slug:username>/', ProfileView.as_view(), name='profile'), path('<slug:username>/edit/', EditProfileView.as_view(), name='edit'), ] But I prefer to NOT edit my URLs. I was wondering if there is another solution I don't know. -
Django, override static path the url routes

At the moment, all urlpatterns return 404 because they are not found in the static dir. What can I do to solve this? -
