You should be able to handle this pretty easily with Django's built-in permission system.
Just create a group, add the users to it, and assign the requisite permissions to the group. Our add the needed permissions individually to each user. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/topics/auth/default/#permissions-and-authorization Then all you'll need to do is wrap your views with the correct permission checks, or do the checks within the templates if you need to, like {% if 'foo.view' in perms %} assuming that you have the default context processors in place, or have included the contrib.auth processor. You shouldn't need to do any permission checks for pages that are available to everyone. Alternatively, you can tweak the user.is_staff attribute to True for those that need extra access, and use that as your permission check if you don't need anything fancy. -James On Feb 18, 2015 9:49 PM, "sum abiut" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I have an app that i am trying to allow only certain users to access > specific views.
