Send E-mail to User When Account is Activated though Django Admin Application












0















Is there a way to send an e-mail to a user when their account is activated through the Django admin application? I can do it independently of the Django admin application but I want the admin to be signed in before they activate a user. Is there a way to achieve this without customizing the Django admin application code? Thanks in advance.

Well, you can override the ModelForm and add the email sending logic in clean method. Also use that modelform in the Admin class. For example:



class UserForm(forms.ModelForm):

    manual_activation = forms.BooleanField()  # a flag which determines if the user should be manually activated



    class Meta:

        model = User

        fields = '__all__'





    def clean(self):

        manual_activation = self.cleaned_data.pop('manual_activation', False)  

        if manual_activation:

             # send_email logics



        return self.cleaned_data





class UserAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

     form = UserForm


What will happen is that, in the User admin page, if you click on an user it will show an extra field in the form, named manual_activation. If you check and save the form, then in clean method, you can catch the value of manual_activation and based on that send email.

            Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

            0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem?
