Your problem doesn't seem to have anything to do with modals or deleting.
You should have posted the error you were getting, but presumably you have
a TypeError because Django is trying to pass the id parameter from the URL
to the view, but the view is not expecting it. Your view is, however,
trying to do something with request.POST, but you don't actually send a
POST request so even if you got that far it wouldn't work.
I think you are confusing a few things here. Your modal should actually
submit a POST request, presumably via a form:
<div class="right-side">
<form action="{% url 'deleteme' %}">
<button id="delete-account" class="btn btn-raised
btn-danger">{% trans 'Yes, delete me' %}</a>
</div>
We also need to remove the ID from the URL:
path('deleteme', deleteme, name='deleteme'),
Note that there is no point submitting the user ID either in the URL or
the POST, since it is already available via the request. So I don't know
what the `deleteme()` method does, but again since it seems to be a method
on the User model it shouldn't need to accept any parameters:
request.user.deleteme()
