Description

As part of ticket-34429 (https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/34429) JS was added to the password change and user create forms to ensure that the forms run on browsers that do not support the :has() CSS selector.

By now, all major browsers support the selector. The last one not supporting it (Firefox 115 ESR) is now well beyond end of life. (See discussion here: ​https://github.com/django/django/pull/16942/files#r1427864863)

Steps to solve the issue:

  • Remove admin/js/unusable_password_field.js
  • Update admin/auth/user/chamge_password.html and admin/auth/user/add_form.html to not load the JS file
