Ordering actions still rendered in action dropdown even if user don't have change permission.

Python: 3.11 Django: 5.0.4

In admin change list, ordering actions [ move_to_exact_page, move_to_back_page, move_to_last_page, move_to_first_page, move_to_forward_page] still rendered in action dropdown even if user don't have change permission.

How can we remove those actions from dropdown on the basis of permission?

Fair point. I have to fix that.

Hi Jrief,

I’d like to take this issue. If you could assign it to me, that would be helpful. I have read the Contributor's Guide and will follow it.

@jrief, By when can we expect the new release?

[jrief]

@drowsyzen you can come up with a pull request. I then will review it.

@jrief i am working on the solution and will open pull request soon(by tomorrow). I have one query.

There are four permissions for model in admin (add, change, delete, view).

For which of these the dropdown should come and for which should it not?

Currently I am making it so that users with view permission will not see the dropdowns. And users with either on of the rest three will see the dropdowns.

In my opinion the change_<my_model> permission would be appropriate. An alternative would be to add a custom permission to the model's Meta-class, say [("reorder", "Can reorder items")] as described here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/ref/models/options/#permissions and use the change-permission as fallback.
