could anyone indicate the best way to extend the Django template? and what is the best way to share a template with the Adminstrative area and the site.

I am using Django version 1.8.6 and Django-bootstrap3

    "Better" in what sense? As for the administrative area, when doing collecttemplate all templates used by admin will end up in a folder, so you can see what your structure is and then customize it (I have no experience with this, but I think the ideal is to copy the default template to one of your apps - preserving the path - and change it there).

  • I get it @mgibsonbr. I meant "better" in the sense of implementation, I saw some examples where they copied the master template on the machine’s Jango, others take the github template. thanks for the tips

Following the answer of that post, you can use the djangosnippets and extend the admin template in an easy way. See the example:

{% extends "admin:admin/index.html" %}

{% block sidebar %}
    {{block.super}}
    <div>
        <h1>Extra links</h1>
        <a href="/admin/extra/">My extra link</a>
    </div>
{% endblock %}

I don’t know if this is the best way, but it is one of the ways. I saw that the post is old, but I think the answer is still valid. Hugs
