Sory for not answer before, but I think I could help. First you need to know how django find the templates, so take a look template loaders
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/templates/api/#django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader There are two default loaders (filesystem and app ) ['django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader', 'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader'] so take a look https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/settings/#template-loaders So is important the app order. 2016-04-22 3:21 GMT-06:00 woodz <[email protected]>: > Aloha Andreas Ka, > > have you been able to get this to work?
