Actually, I just use this construct:
'DIRS': [
# insert your TEMPLATE_DIRS here
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'project_name', 'templates'),
],

Subject: Cannot find template files for 1.11
I am having trouble setting up django to find my template file I have created.
The settings.py has, among other sections, the following:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'designer.apps.DesignerConfig',
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
]
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS':
["/home/john/git/primaryWindingsCalculator/windingCalculator/designer/template"],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
'django.template.context_processors.debug',
'django.template.context_processors.request',
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
],
},
},
]
If I take the entry out of the DIRS array, django won't be able to find my
template file, I have put in a directory:
designer/template/designer/
I thought that if my app was in the INSTALLED_APPS list, then it would look in
there dor my templates, and in
designer/static/designer/
for all static files, that it can't find also by the way.
Any help much appreciated.
Many thanks,
John.
