user group template tag django
The user group template tag in Django is used to control access to certain parts of a template based on the current user's group membership. Here's how to use it:
- Define the user groups in your Django application, such as "Admins" and "Managers," using the
Group
model provided by Django's authentication framework. - Assign users to these groups using the
groups
field on theUser
model. - In your template, use the
{% if user.is_group %}
or{% if user.is_not_group %}
template tags to conditionally display content based on the user's group membership.
For example:
{% if user.groups.filter(name='Admins').exists %}
<!-- Content for users in the Admins group -->
{% endif %}
{% if user.groups.filter(name='Managers').exists %}
<!-- Content for users in the Managers group -->
{% endif %}
By following these steps, you can control the visibility of content within your Django templates based on the current user's group membership.
