Requirements

  • Python >=3.10
  • Django >=5.2, <6.1

Design

  • Bootstrap 5.3
  • No external requests: no jQuery, no CDN, no webfonts. The only script is Bootstrap's own bundle, and typography uses system font stacks.
  • Light and dark themes via Bootstrap's data-bs-theme attribute
  • Accessible defaults: visible focus styles, prefers-reduced-motion respected, and a print stylesheet

All templates live under django_classified/templates/django_classified/ and can be overridden by placing a file of the same name earlier on the template path.

Demo project

Installation

  • Install app pip install django-classified
  • Add django_classified to the INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # Default Django applications
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',

     # Required by Django Classified
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.humanize',
    'django.contrib.sitemaps',

     # External applications required by Django Classified
    'sorl.thumbnail',

    # Django Classified
    'django_classified',
]
  • Add SITE_ID to settings.py file:
SITE_ID = 1
  • Import include in addition to path and add path('', include('django_classified.urls', namespace='django_classified')), to the project urls.py file:
from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    path('', include('django_classified.urls', namespace='django_classified')),
]
  • Add 'django_classified.context_processors.common_values' to the settings TEMPLATES context_processors list:
TEMPLATES[0]['OPTIONS']['context_processors'].append('django_classified.context_processors.common_values')

  • DCF_SITE_NAME - Site title
  • DCF_SITE_DESCRIPTION - Site description
  • DCF_ITEM_PER_USER_LIMIT - Max Items allowed per user
  • DCF_SITEMAP_LIMIT - Sitemap items limit
  • DCF_RSS_LIMIT - RSS feed items limit
  • DCF_RELATED_LIMIT - Number of related items displayed
  • DCF_ITEM_PER_PAGE - Number of items per page
  • DCF_LOGIN_TO_CONTACT - Hide contact information for unauthorized requests
  • DCF_DISPLAY_EMPTY_GROUPS - Display groups without items in the groups list
  • DCF_DISPLAY_CREDITS - Show the "Powered by Django Classified" footer credit (default: True)
  • DCF_CURRENCY - Site currency (default: 'USD')

Optional integrations

  • GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_PROPERTY_ID - Google Analytics 4 measurement ID (e.g. 'G-XXXXXXXXXX')
  • GOOGLE_SITE_VERIFICATION_ID - Google Search Console verification code
  • FACEBOOK_APP_ID - Facebook App ID for Open Graph integration

Upgrading to 1.3

1.3 migrates the bundled templates from Bootstrap 3 to Bootstrap 5 and removes several dependencies. If you use the templates as shipped, upgrading with pip install -U django-classified is all you need. Otherwise:

  • Remove 'bootstrapform' from INSTALLED_APPS. django-bootstrap-form is no longer a dependency, so leaving it listed raises ModuleNotFoundError. The bootstrap template filter is now provided by this package and keeps its name, so {% load i18n bootstrap %} still works.
  • If you override any bundled template, it is now Bootstrap 5 markup. The old Bootstrap 3 classes (form-group, control-label, help-block, pull-right, btn-default, glyphicons) are gone.
  • These static files were removed: jQuery, lightbox2, the Glyphicons fonts, jumbotron-narrow.css, and bootstrap.min.css.map. Reference them from your own project if you still need them.
  • Item images now open in a Bootstrap modal with a carousel instead of lightbox2.
