# django-admin-inline-paginator-plus — The 'Django Admin Inline Paginator Plus' is simple way to paginate your inlines in Django admin

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 182.9K/mo

## What it is and what it does

Django Admin Inline Paginator Plus is a Django admin extension that breaks up inline model forms into paginated pages. Instead of rendering all related objects in a single long list, you define a per_page limit and the inline displays only that many rows at a time, with navigation controls to move between pages. The package supports both tabular and stacked inline layouts, and includes AJAX support via htmx for smooth pagination without full page reloads.

It's a fork of an unmaintained library, updated to work with modern Django versions (4.2 through 6.0) and current Python (3.11–3.14). The main use case is improving the admin interface when you have models with many related objects—pagination keeps the admin form responsive and usable instead of forcing the browser to render hundreds of inline rows.

Use it for:

- Reduce admin page load time when a model has many related records by showing only 5–10 inlines per page
- Manage multiple paginated inline sections on the same admin form with unique pagination_key settings
- Enable smooth, AJAX-driven pagination in the admin without requiring custom JavaScript
- Display tabular or stacked inlines with automatic page controls for large datasets

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Adds pagination to Django admin inline forms, allowing you to display related objects in smaller, navigable chunks rather than all at once.

Yes, if you use Django admin and have models with many related objects. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and solves a real usability problem. The MIT license carries no restrictions. Start with the basic TabularInlinePaginated or StackedInlinePaginated class and set per_page to a reasonable number for your use case.

## Install

pip install django-admin-inline-paginator-plus
uv add django-admin-inline-paginator-plus
poetry add django-admin-inline-paginator-plus

## Installing django-admin-inline-paginator-plus

Before you install: Low friction: pure Python wheel with only django as a runtime dependency. Actively maintained as of May 2026 with recent releases.

License in practice: MIT license permits free use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions—suitable for both open and closed projects.

Quickstart:

pip install django-admin-inline-paginator-plus

# In settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,
    'django_admin_inline_paginator_plus',
]

# In admin.py
from django_admin_inline_paginator_plus.admin import TabularInlinePaginated

class MyInline(TabularInlinePaginated):
    model = MyModel
    per_page = 5

Verify before relying:

- Whether htmx integration is automatic or requires separate setup beyond adding the app to INSTALLED_APPS
- Compatibility with custom admin templates or whether it assumes Django's default admin structure
- Performance characteristics when paginating very large inline querysets
