Question

After installing django_message I noticed django has a nice little notification system build-in (Being: Auth_message). I was wondering how can I show them to users? They only appear in the admin panel as for now.

Which template tag can I use to integrate them into the site?
How can I add notifications?

Auth messages are deprecated.

Make sure you have django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages context processor set in your setting.py. Then you can just use messages variable in your templates.

{% if messages %}
    <ul class="messagelist">
        {% for message in messages %}
            <li>{{ message }}</li>
        {% endfor %}
    </ul>
{% endif %}
