Customize admin look & fee (Django 1.7 / Windows)

[Dario Chemello]

Hi all,

I've read a lot about other posts regardind problems to this part of the tutorial:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial02/#customize-the-admin-look-and-feel

I've tried everything, but nothing happen! 

- using 

TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')]

as in the tutorial, nothing change

- put directly the path: 

TEMPLATE_DIRS = [
    'C:/Users/Dario/mysite/templates'
]

nothing!

- Using:

TEMPLATE_LOADERS = ('django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader','django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader')

before TEMPLATE_DIRS... nothing!!!!

Under C:/Users/Dario/mysite/templates obviously I've got an admin dir and then the base_site.html file modified.

Is it possible that's happens cause Python/django are on disk "D:" and the project under "C:" ???

Please help me... probably it's a little thing but I cannot seem to find a solution!

Thanks to all!!!

Did you save your template here?

C:/Users/Dario/mysite/templates/admin/base_site.html

[Dario Chemello]

Yes!

And I change on the template only the "title":

{% extends "admin/base.html" %}


{% block title %}{{ title }} | {{ site_title|default:_('Dario Administration') }}{% endblock %}


{% block branding %}
<h1 id="site-name"><a href="{% url 'admin:index' %}">{{ site_header|default:_('Dario Administration') }}</a></h1>
{% endblock %}


{% block nav-global %}{% endblock %}

[Dario Chemello]

Uhm.....

site_title|default:_('Dario Administration')

Is site_title valorized???

I think, if yes, that the problem is only there. 

But on tutorial, imho, this part is not so clear.

Did you ever get an answer to this, I'm a bit unsure on why my template files aren't working?
