delete(*args, **kwargs)

Override the delete method to prevent deletion of staff users.

This method checks if the user is a staff member. If the user is a staff member, it sets the is_staff attribute to False and saves the user instance, effectively removing staff privileges without deleting the user from the database.

Args:

*args: Variable length argument list. **kwargs: Arbitrary keyword arguments.

Returns:

None

get_full_name()

Return the full name of the user.

If the user has both first name and last name specified, it returns the concatenation of the first name and last name separated by a space. If either the first name or last name is not specified, it returns the username.

Returns:

str: The full name of the user.
