How to make Django-Oscar appear as a separate app in Django admin panel?

Question

Good day y'all!

Here comes a basic Django question:

I was running a Django project with one app in it and installed Django-Oscar to cover my ecommerce needs. So, I pip installed it in my main project and set everything up the way they explain it on readthedocs. Now, the structure of my admin panel looks like this:

• Main project
  • My app
  • Oscar Address
  • Oscar Analytics
  • Oscar ...

And I'd like it to be:

• Main project
  • My app
  • Shop
    • Oscar Address
    • Oscar Analytics
    • Oscar ...

I already did django-admin startapp shop for that matter. Apparently the question is so obvious that I can't find any tutorials for dummies to do this.

Can someone point me in the right direction? Maybe a generic tutorial about including apps in apps the right way is laying around somewhere?

Thank you in advance.

It isn't clear from your question what you're actually trying to achieve, but Oscar does not really 'play nice' with the Django admin, from the docs:

But please note that Oscar makes no attempts at having [admin] be a workable interface; admin integration exists to ease the life of developers.

However, if you're just looking to configure the basic oscar functionality there is the Oscar dashboard (at /dashboard) which is where the ecommerce functionality is configurable. That can also be customised with additional views.
