django-simple-history

To integrate this application with your Django project, add unfold.contrib.simple_history to the INSTALLED_APPS variable in your settings.py file. It's important to place it after unfold but before simple_history in the list. This application ensures that all templates from django-simple-history are properly overridden by Unfold's styling and components, maintaining a consistent look and feel throughout your admin interface.

# settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    "unfold",
    # ...
    "unfold.contrib.simple_history",
    # ...
    "simple_history",
]

Below you can find an example of how to use Unfold with django-simple-history. The most important part is to inherit from both the SimpleHistoryAdmin and unfold.admin.ModelAdmin classes in your admin configuration. This inheritance ensures that you get both the history tracking functionality and Unfold's enhanced admin interface styling.

# admin.py

from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model

from simple_history.admin import SimpleHistoryAdmin
from unfold.admin import ModelAdmin

User = get_user_model()


@admin.register(User)
class UserAdmin(SimpleHistoryAdmin, ModelAdmin):
    pass
