From the django docs on url namespaces [1]
Namespaced URLs are specified using the : operator. For example, the
main index page of the admin application is referenced using
admin:index. This indicates a namespace of admin, and a named URL of
index.
So you link to the admin index in your template using:
{% url admin:index %}
For Django 1.3, the documented way [2] to include the admin site is:
*url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),*

Hello,
I am moving from 1.0.2 to 1.3 and am having problems linking to the
admin site from within a template.
I used to have this in my template...
<p><a href="{% url the-django-admin None %}">Django Admin</a>
And I used to have this in my urls.py
url(r'^admin/(.*)' , admin.site.root, name='the-django-
admin'),
I'm sure this was hacky even back in 1.0.2
How should I link to the admin site's index from within a template?
I cannot hard code it to /admin because while this would work on
development, on production it needs to be /apps/admin
So I need to use the URL resoving mechanism so that the prefix gets
picked up based on which environment it is on.
So... simple question. How do I link to the Django admin site from
within a template?
Thanks,
~Eric
