When a template file is loaded, Django
scans all template directories starting from the ones defined by the user, and returns the first match or an error in case the template is not found.
The theme used to style this starter provides the following files:
# This exists in ENV: LIB/admin_volt
< UI_LIBRARY_ROOT >
|
|-- templates/ # Root Templates Folder
| |
| |-- accounts/
| | |-- sign-in.html # Sign IN Page
| | |-- sign-up.html # Sign UP Page
| |
| |-- includes/
| | |-- footer.html # Footer component
| | |-- sidebar.html # Sidebar component
| | |-- navigation.html # Navigation Bar
| | |-- scripts.html # Scripts Component
| |
| |-- layouts/
| | |-- base.html # Masterpage
| | |-- base-auth.html # Masterpage for Auth Pages
| |
| |-- pages/
| |-- index.html # Dashboard Page
| |-- settings.html # Profile Page
| |-- *.html # All other pages
|
|-- ************************************************************************
When the project requires customization, we need to copy the original file that needs an update (from the virtual environment) and place it in the template folder using the same path.
For instance, if we want to customize the footer.html
these are the steps:
Step 1
: create the templates
DIRECTORY inside your appStep 2
: configure the project to use this new template directory
settings.py
TEMPLATES sectionStep 3
: copy the footer.html
from the original location (inside your ENV) and save it to the YOUR_APP/templates
DIR
<YOUR_ENV>/LIB/admin_volt/templates/includes/footer.html
YOUR_APP/templates/includes/footer.html
footer.html
(Destination PATH)At this point, the default version of the footer.html
shipped in the library is ignored by Django.
In a similar way, all other files and components can be customized easily.
This design is a pixel-perfect Bootstrap 5 Dashboard with a fresh, new design. Volt Dashboard PRO
is built with over 300 frontend individual elements, like buttons, inputs, navbars, nav tabs, cards, or alerts, giving you the freedom of choosing and combining.
