No migrations showing up after install

Hi @joelion,

Yes, you need only to add it to INSTALLED_APPS and run migrate. The package doesn't contain any actual migrations. It uses migrate to create the new permissions on the db (like django does for the default permissions).

I hope this to answer your question.

Thanks,

Got it. I was expecting more fanfare, so I didn't even check the admin page to see if it changed.

However, now as soon as I enable the plugin and go to admin, I don't have any permissions to see or do anything on the admin site.

My account is a superuser (screenshot taken when plugin isn't enabled)

Hi @joelion,

This not normal. Superuser should have the ability to see all the models.

Did you add the 'admin_view_permission' at the top on the INSTALLED_APPS? To see what's going wrong you can run python manage.py shell and execute the following commands:

from django.contrib.auth.models import User
u = User.objects.get(username=<your username>)
u.user_permissions.all()
u.groups.all()

Both commands should return empty querysets. Otherwise set the user permissions and groups to null and try to login as superuser again.

Thanks,
Lefreris

Great, got it. I didn't realize that the order in INSTALLED_APPS mattered. Putting admin_view_permission at the top got everything working as expected.

Really surprised this feature it's built-in functionality... thanks
