If changes in the model are not detected, it will show as unchanged. This may be due to you making changes to the model without running the makemigrations command correctly. Make sure to generate data migration files correctly using the makemigrations command before running the migrate command.<\/li>\n<li>Data migration files have been modified: If you have manually altered data migration files, it may cause Django to not properly detect changes in models. In this case, you can try deleting the data migration file and generating a new one.<\/li>\n<li>There is already an existing table in the database: If there is already a table in your database that is the same as the new model, Django may not be able to detect the changes correctly.
