Additional filters for django-admin.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you are actively maintaining a Django admin interface and need better filter widgets. The package is stable (Production/Stable status), has no known vulnerabilities, and carries a permissive license. However, maintenance is aging (last commit 219 days ago); adopt it only if you can tolerate slow or infrequent updates, or if you are willing to fork or patch it yourself if Django changes break compatibility.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

What it is and what it does
django-more-admin-filters extends Django's admin interface with a set of filter classes designed to replace the default list filters with more user-friendly widgets. It focuses on dropdown-based filtering, multi-select options, and support for annotated model attributes—features the standard Django admin does not provide out of the box. The package includes filters for regular fields, related fields, choice fields, and annotated attributes, allowing developers to build more intuitive filtering experiences in the admin backend.
The package is installed as a Django app and integrated into ModelAdmin classes by specifying filter classes in the list_filter attribute. For annotated attributes, filters must be initialized with the attribute name explicitly. It has been in production use since 2020 and supports Django versions from 2.2 through 6.0, though recent maintenance activity is limited.
Use it for
- Replace default admin filters with dropdown widgets for cleaner, more compact filter panels in large admin interfaces.
- Implement multi-select filtering to allow users to filter by multiple values simultaneously rather than one at a time.
- Add filtering capabilities to computed/annotated model attributes that the standard Django admin cannot filter directly.
- Improve UX in admin list views by using familiar dropdown and checkbox widgets instead of radio buttons or link lists.
- Build admin interfaces for models with many related objects where choice-limited filtering reduces noise.
