That doesn't look like a real subdirectory - isn't 'base_site' part of the template name, not the directory? Also, according to the docs, this isn't right. You should add the directory containing the 'admin' directory to TEMPLATE_DIRS. Create a directory for your project templates and add that location to TEMPLATE_DIRS. Create a directory called 'admin' in this directory. Create a directory named after each app you want to override. Place the global template files you wish to override in the 'admin' directory. Place the per-app overrides in the 'admin/<app name>' directory. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-admin-templates Hope that helps Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
