Here are my settings:
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
#'/Users/tamara/Documents/django-python/fifthproject/tdslogin/
templates',
'/Users/tamara/Documents/django-python/fifthproject/templates',
)
If I uncomment the first directory 'tdslogin/templates' then both my
application ('tdslogin') and the admin application use the template
at tdslogin/templates/registration/logged_out.html
If I leave that line commented then both my application and the admin
application use /admin/templates/registration/logged_out.html
My installed apps look like this:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.sites',
'django.contrib.markup',
'django.contrib.comments',
'django.contrib.redirects',
'django.contrib.flatpages',
'django.contrib.admin',
'fifthproject.tdslogin',
)
even if I switch the last two around, the same thing happens - the
order of the apps doesn't seem to matter, just the existence (or not)
of that one line in the TEMPLATE_DIRS.
So the problem is that the admin system logout and
django.contrib.auth.views.logout both look for a template at
registration/logged_out.html. I guess the admin directories are
checked last - so when 'tdslogin/templates' is not commented out,
that is the first one it finds, and when it is commented out, it is
the last one it finds.
I see now that there is no conflict with the login template. The
admin has it at /admin/templates/admin/login.html, and
django.contrib.auth.views expects it at registration/login.html.
BTW, I had really confusing template problems with two other practice
apps about a month or so ago, and I solved those problems by simply
commenting out all of the directories in TEMPLATE_DIRS. That was how
things started for me earlier today, and why that directory has been
toggled on and off many times today as I've tried to figure out this
problem. But, as I said earlier, my solution is to simply write my
own logout view (3 lines, oh my!) and move on.
