ah, got it. thanks malcolm !
just to think it out further : now I understand that (r'^something/(?P<slug>[-\w]+)/', include('some.where.urls')), would pass the captured param to to all the urls in the included urls.py I think I was copying from this: # Uncomment the next line for to enable the admin: (r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root), and in that case the rest of the url is passed into the AdminSite.root function : def root(self, request, url): I've had the most hold-ups so far due to configuring the urls. named urls has helped significantly.
