Question

How can I remove or change the verbose name of the default admin action \"delete selected X item\" in the Django admin panel?

Answer 1

class FooAdmin(sites.AdminSite):
        not_deleted = ['value1', 'value2']
        actions = ['delete_selected_values']

    def delete_selected_values(self, request, queryset):
        # my custom logic
        exist = queryset.filter(value__in=self.not_deleted).exists()
        if exist:
            error_message = "Error"
            self.message_user(request, error_message, level=messages.ERROR)
        else:
            delete_action = super().get_action('delete_selected')[0]
            return delete_action(self, request, queryset)
    delete_selected_values.short_description = 'delete selected'

admin.site.register(Foo, FooAdmin)
