Customising Django-oscar templates

[MONICA PHALSWAL]

Hi, I tried following the recipe given in the official docs but, it didn't work. So could somebody just explain it step-by-step. Also I'm building my shop in a virtualenv, I tried finding the oscar template folder but couldn't find it. Please help!

[Michael Lind Hjulskov]

Hi

I'll give it a try
Im still newbie so hope its correct

The template files are located in the oscar/templates/oscar/
Leave them there and copy those files You want to make changes to, to Your own templates dir
example myapp/templates/partials/footer.html

2 possibilities inside the html file
Using "extends oscar/partials/footer.html" You can change only a block in the original
or just replacing all the content with your own content

Hope this helps

Michael

Monika - ensure you have OSCAR_MAIN_TEMPLATE_DIR (imported from oscar) in your TEMPLATE_DIRS setting.  Then you can override individual blocks within templates to customise.  It's normal to have your own templates directory too that you can use to override entire template files.

See the sandbox site for a working example:

Hi David!
I have the same problem: I follow the method2's instructions to customise templates and it doesn't work. I want to customize the navbar so I did a copy of the partials/nav_primary.html in my templates dir : myapp/templates/partials/nav_primary.html. Then I added the {% extends oscar/partials/nav_primary.html %} to this file. And I add some buttons, but they don't appear... It seems that the loader doesn't load my file...

Thanks for your help!

Edith,

Do you have your own templates directory in your TEMPLATE_DIRS setting (as mentioned below)?  This is the key change for the customisation technique to work.  I suggest using the debug toolbar to debug these template issues - it has a templates panel which shows every template loaded.

Have a look at Oscar's sandbox site for an example of this:

https://github.com/tangentlabs/django-oscar/blob/master/sites/sandbox/settings.py#L165

Hope that helps, 

David

Hi David,

Yes I have my templates directory in my TEMPLATE_DIRS, like this:

location = lambda x: os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), '..', x)
from oscar import OSCAR_MAIN_TEMPLATE_DIR

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    location('templates'),
    OSCAR_MAIN_TEMPLATE_DIR,
)

I tried to modify the location variable, removing the '..' argument like in your exemple, but it didn't work.
I will try with the debug toolbar, to find out what's wrong.

Thanks for your answer!

Edith

[edith salento]

OK

Problem resolved:

location('myapp/templates')

Thanks a lot

Hi David,

I am trying to override the base.html but couldn't. Copied the template under local DIR (templates/oscar/base.html) But Django-Debug-Toolbar shows
