Menu
in the Django administration console, all section (menu links) come from models with database tables, but what would I need to do if I need a section without a corresponding model object (no database table) that fetches data from other section with model?
Any ideas? Thanks

The Django admin is a powerful built-in tool giving you the ability to create, update, and delete objects in your database using a web interface. You can customize the Django admin to do almost anything you want.
To login to the site, open the /admin URL (e.g. http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin ) and enter your new superuser userid and password credentials (you'll be redirected to the login page, and then back to the /admin URL after you've entered your details).
One of the most powerful parts of Django is the automatic admin interface. It reads metadata from your models to provide a quick, model-centric interface where trusted users can manage content on your site.
Django Admin's task is to provide an interface to the admin of the web project. Django's Docs clearly state that Django Admin is not made for frontend work.
It looks like you want to add new admin urls with your own customized views and template: django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.get_urls
You can construct those new admins without a new model this way.
