I can't change my Django admin template. I have followed the instructions from the Django documentation, and I have already checked StackOverflow questions.
I have already made /templates/admin/my_app/
, and changed base_site.html
in /templates/admin/my_app/base_site.html
settings.py:
# Build paths inside the project like this: os.path.join(BASE_DIR, ...)
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
'django.template.context_processors.debug',
'django.template.context_processors.request',
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
],
},
},
]
base_site.html:
#base_site.html
{% extends "admin/base_site.html" %}
{% block title %}{{ title }} | {{ site_title|default:_('NEW TITLE') }}{%
endblock %}
{% block branding %}
<h1 id="site-name"><a href="{% url 'admin:index' %}">{{
site_header|default:_('NEW TITLE') }}</a></h1>
{% endblock %}
{% block nav-global %}{% endblock %}
File Structure:
my_project
└── my_project
└── templates
└── admin
└── my_app
└── base_site.html
Why can't I override the Django Admin template?
