Hello Marcio, Welcome to this group. I will try answer all of your questions.
*Create "static" and "templates" on the project root (C:\sites\mysite) ?* The static folder and templates folder should be on the project root, yes. *Create a "theme" folder on the project root, and put static and template inside * Don't create a theme folder. Create an app with the command: python manage.py startapp theme_name It will create that folder for you with the necessary files. Then add the theme_name to your settings.py file in INSTALLED_APPS *at the top*! *Create a "theme" folder on the project root, and put static, template, and __init__.py inside, and call it an "app" ?* Inside this app folder that I just answered on the second question, you can create a templates folder. Inside this folder you can copy some of the templates that you would like to modify. To get the templates run this command: python manage.py collecttemplates Then the files will be in the templates folder in the project root. Move the files that you want and put them in the theme_name/templates folder and start modifying.
