This approach allows you to rename you app name & app breadcrumbs within admin interface.
Paste the code in admin.py of your application and change AppLabelRenamer.main params.

Thank you for the snippet.
Your code works only on the app list page (eg: /admin/appname/), doesn't work on main admin page (eg: /admin/) and on models pages (eg: /admin/appname/modelname/*).
Is this correct?
#
It works for me in both main (/admin/) and model (/admin/appname/modelname/). Can you describe your case?
#
Thanks a million!
The only problem, for me, is that it isn't working at app index page (eg: /admin/appname/), I mean, the title immediateley bellow breadcrumbs is not working but the title inside the box with the models does work.
Any idea, please?
Francisco.

Thank you for the snippet.
There is a problem with "/admin/appname/". Not able to view app_label & get all models names. Any tip regarding how to use this with django-admin-tools
Thanks
