Re: Writing your first Django app, part 2 - Customize the admin look and feel

Can you post your directory structure here? The problem should be there, most probably.

Hello,

I am just going through the Django Tutorial and am in Writing your first Django app, part 2.  In the section called "Customize the admin look and feel", I have created a templates directory, an admin directory inside of that, and copied the base_site.html file into the admin directory.  I have also added the line below to the settings.py file as instructed:

TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates')]

However, when I change the <h1> in the base_site.html file, nothing happens.  I have tried moving the templates directory around several times and still no change the admin <h1> text.  It appears that others have had problems with this part of the tutorial in the past for previous versions of Django but the solutions I have tried don't seem to work with Django v 1.6.1.  This part of the tutorial has changed even since Django 1.5.  Can anyone help and tell me what I'm doing incorrectly?  Is is some kind of absolute/relative path issue?  Thanks so much for your help.

-Tim
