[Django]-Django: prevent template from using a model method

This is noted in the template API docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/templates/api/#variables-and-lookups

Occasionally you may want to turn off this feature for other reasons, and tell the template system to leave a variable un-called no matter what. To do so, set a do_not_call_in_templates attribute on the callable with the value True. The template system then will act as if your variable is not callable (allowing you to access attributes of the callable, for example).

To do this change your function to have the do_not_call_in_templates flag set:

def get_admin_credentials(self):
    return decrypt(self.admin_credentials)
get_admin_credentials.do_not_call_in_templates = True
