Django Admin- disable Editing and remove “Save” buttons for a specific model

Question

I have a Django Model which I wish to be only readonly. No adds and edits allowed.

I have marked all fields readonly and overridden has_add_permission in ModelAdmin

Answer 1

For Django 1.11:

def has_add_permission(self, request, obj=None):
    return False

def changeform_view(self, request, object_id=None, form_url='', extra_context=None):
    extra_context = extra_context or {}
    extra_context['show_save_and_continue'] = False
    extra_context['show_save'] = False
    return super(YourModelAdmin, self).changeform_view(request, object_id, extra_context=extra_context)
