Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nsupdate-info/nsupdate.info/issues/521

Since some change recently, the layout of the django admin is defect:

the main menu still gets shown normally
but any of the item views there, e.g. "hosts" or "users" has (parts of) the main menu repeated above their main table

IIRC, I didn't change any CSS or anything related to this, so guess this is some unexpected collateral damage of another change.

Here's how the "Hosts" view looks like (I searched for a special host to not show arbitrary hosts for privacy reasons):

Recent changes:

#520
#516
some more before that (after a long time of no changes), but they were rather github actions testing related
I also removed all social auths from local_settings.py.

This is the piece of html injected between header and content that either shouldn't be there or at least should be hidden:

    <div class="main shifted" id="main">
          
<button class="sticky toggle-nav-sidebar" id="toggle-nav-sidebar" aria-label="Toggle navigation"></button>
<nav class="sticky" id="nav-sidebar">
  
    <div class="app-accounts module">
      <table>
        <caption>
          <a href="/admin/accounts/" class="section" title="Models in the Accounts application">Accounts</a>
        </caption>
        
          <tr class="model-userprofile">
              <th scope="row"><a href="/admin/accounts/userprofile/">User profiles</a></th>
              <td><a href="/admin/accounts/userprofile/add/" class="addlink">Add</a></td>
          </tr>        
      </table>
    </div>
  
    <div class="app-auth module">
      ...

Ah, I forgot to run django-admin collectstatic --settings=local_settings.

Now it looks better:
