Admin users are not listed .

Hi, I've created admin users using : createsuperuser, and it appears both users can't see each other or interact.

I created a simple user on admin panel, and from one end, the user appear, but the other end can't see the connected user .

• I've created 2 simple users, and now they can see each other and interact with each other.

I don't see why admin user can't send or receive chat messages from simple users ?

Hi @anugrahsoft That is so because I intended the admin users to be their for administrative purposes such as accessing the admin panel, modifying users etc. They are superuser for and not the default user of the app. New users could easily be created using the sign up page.

Even admin is a user, so .... should send a message to its userbase.

I presumed admin to not be the user, we can surely take your route as well. Let me know if you would like to undertake this issue.

Hey @anugrahsoft @frzn23

For testing I wanted to chat between admin accounts so I just removed the is_superuser=False part and used the 2nd line below the defined function so I could chat with other admins.

@login_required
def users(request):
# users = User.objects.filter(is_superuser=False).exclude(id=request.user.id) #commented for testing
users = User.objects.exclude(id=request.user.id)

return render(request, 'chatapp/users.html', {'users': users})
