Override template without editing source package?

[craigmaloney]

I'm not understanding how to override the template without writing to the honeypot templates in the package. Is there a way to do this, and if so could this be explained more clearly in the documentation?

Thanks!

If you put a template with the same path in your templates directory yours will be used instead of the package's. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/howto/overriding-templates/ is actually probably the best resource for this, as it isn't specific to this project.

Hm, I tried this, but didn't seem to have much luck. Does it need to have the honeypot directory as well?

Yes, include the honeypot part of the path :)

Ah, found my issue was related to the site-packages getting polled before the local template directories. It's working now.

Thanks for the quick response!
