i am new user to  django .and i don't know how to add     .html   files (template dirs ) to  the apps folders  .what are the things want to change in settings.py
 

            the error will be templatedoesnotexist
       /polls
          /admin.py
          /__init__.py
         /models.py
         /tests.py
          /urls.py
          /views.py
          /template
                   /polls
                            /index.html
and this order will be correct or not     
           
for example this will be codings 

 {% if latest_poll_list %}
    <ul>
    {% for poll in latest_poll_list %}
        <li><a href="/polls/{{ poll.id }}/">{{ poll.question }}</a></li>
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
{% else %}
    <p>No polls are available.</p>
{% endif %}

is it necessary to add htmltag ,header tag and doctype before this html codings

Do you have the template_dirs setting in your settings.py pointing to
project/app/templates/ ?

Just a little hint – it woud be good, when you put an informative title
of your emails, so the people can orient what the topic of the email is.

Best wishes!

My recommendations (as you're at the starting point, 'd be easy to adjust), don't place your 'Templates' folder in app folder, but place it one level up i.e.

Basic Project map:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

     myproject/- 

                     --myproject/- (project file container)

                                           - __init__.py

                                           - settings.py

                                           - urls.py

                                           - wsgi.py

                    

                     --myapp1/- 

                                           - models.py

                                           - views.py

                                           - admin.py

                                           - __init__.py

                                           - test.py

                    --myapp2/- 

                                           - models.py

                                           - views.py

                                           - __init__.py

                                           - test.py

                     -- manage.py-

                     --Templates/-

                                         - myapp1/- (use a seperate folder for every app)

                                                       - base.html

                                                       - index.html

                                                       - view_category.html

                                                       - view_posts.html

                                        - myapp2/ -

set your Temp dir: /home/machinename/myproject/Templates/

as you're practicing the exactly the 'building the first app' tutorial, you've placed your templates wrong.

Move your 'Templates' folder one directory UP.
