Is there anyone that can provide some assistance with overriding base_site.html? I copied django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/ base_site.html to my projects's templates/admin dir, but changes to it are not getting picked up. I also tried adding that to TEMPLATE_DIRS (there was nothing in it before). In urlpatterns I have: (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)) - does that need to change? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
