Comment:
As best I can figure out, OP is either referring to what you linked, or to
the mention of "the default value of TEMPLATE_LOADERS" in
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/templates/upgrading/#the-
templates-settings
Both of those are referring to the default value of `TEMPLATE_LOADERS`
pre-1.8. The default value of `['OPTIONS']['loaders']` for Django Template
Language in 1.8 is more complex; it only includes the `app_directories`
loader if you set `APP_DIRS: True`, as documented in the TEMPLATES setting
docs: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/settings/#std:setting-
TEMPLATES
I would assume the OP isn't setting `APP_DIRS: True`. It defaults to
`False`, though the startproject default settings file sets it to `True`.
But it sounds like OP also has a polluted installation of 1.8 which is
somehow still using an old project template. Django 1.8 startproject
template definitely uses `TEMPLATES`, not `TEMPLATE_*`.
