    <p>Django provides access to certain, frequently-used settings constants to the template such as <code>settings.MEDIA_URL</code> and some of the language settings if you use django's built in generic views or pass in a context instance keyword argument in the <code>render_to_response</code> shortcut function. Here's an example of each case:</p> <pre><code>from django.shortcuts import render_to_response from django.template import RequestContext from django.views.generic.simple import direct_to_template def my_generic_view(request, template='my_template.html'): return direct_to_template(request, template) def more_custom_view(request, template='my_template.html'): return render_to_response(template, {}, context_instance=RequestContext(request)) </code></pre> <p>These views will both have several frequently used settings like <code>settings.MEDIA_URL</code> available to the template as <code>{{ MEDIA_URL }}</code>, etc.</p> <p>If you're looking for access to other constants in the settings, then simply unpack the constants you want and add them to the context dictionary you're using in your view function, like so:</p> <pre><code>from django.conf import settings from django.shortcuts import render_to_response def my_view_function(request, template='my_template.html'): context = {'favorite_color': settings.FAVORITE_COLOR} return render_to_response(template, context) </code></pre> <p>Now you can access <code>settings.FAVORITE_COLOR</code> on your template as <code>{{ favorite_color }}</code>. </p>

    1. COIt's worth noting that the specific values added by using a RequestContext is dependent on the value of TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS. Thus if you want additional values passed in everywhere, just write your own context processor and add it to TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS.

    2. COA point on consistency, in the generic views, and many of the core and contrib apps, additional context is called extra_context, and very often it is included in the view's arguments.

    3. CO"Django provides access to certain, frequently-used settings constants to the template such as settings.MEDIA_URL". This doesn't appear to work in Django 1.3, although I'm probably using it wrong. Is there any documentation for this feature?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
