How to change the database name display in django admin site?

There are two options, you can do it manually, or you can do it through the help of an external python library

Manually

is by creating custom AdminSite

admin.py

from django.contrib.admin import AdminSite
from django.utils.translation import ugettext_lazy

class MyAdminSite(AdminSite):
    # Text to put at the end of each page's <title>.
    site_title = ugettext_lazy('My site admin')

    # Text to put in each page's <h1> (and above login form).
    site_header = ugettext_lazy('My administration')

    # Text to put at the top of the admin index page.
    index_title = ugettext_lazy('Site administration')

admin_site = MyAdminSite()

urls.py

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include
from myproject.admin import admin_site

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^admin/', include(admin_site.urls)),
)

by using python package

you can use the python package called django-admin-interface

pip install django-admin-interface

you’ll need to import it into your settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    #...
    "admin_interface",
    "flat_responsive", # only if django version < 2.0
    "flat", # only if django version < 1.9
    "colorfield",
    #...
    "django.contrib.admin",
    #...
)

# only if django version >= 3.0
X_FRAME_OPTIONS = "SAMEORIGIN"
SILENCED_SYSTEM_CHECKS = ["security.W019"]

after installing it, you’ll be able to customize your admin panel from the themes menu inside your admin panel
