base.html for Django Registration Redux

Question

I am using django-registration-redux and everything works like a charm. However, I am a bit dissatisfied with the fact that it forces me to name the base template that it uses base.html, and that I have to put it in the templates directory.

I'd rather have it somewhere like this:

"/templates/registration/redux_base.html"

Is it possible to define this somewhere in my settings.py? I could not find that, but I think this must be possible. (Otherwise I am getting name clashes with other apps which is frustrating...)

Answer 1

Almost all templates from redux are extending template "registration/registration_base.html", except of templates for activation (for some reason they are extending directly from "base.html"). Template "registration/registration_base.html" looks literally like this:

{% extends "base.html" %}

So you can override that template (simply by creating "global" template for project on that location) and define here another {% extends %} or your whole new template.

But templates for email activation, as I mentioned above, are extending directly from "base.html" so if you are using them, you must overrite them separately.
