    <p>I have a Django project with two apps: email_app and landing_page_app. The <code>landing_page_app.views</code> includes <code>email_app.views</code>, so that it can use the <code>new_lead_email</code> function. </p> <p>In <code>email_app.views</code>:</p> <pre><code>from datetime import datetime from templated_email import send_templated_mail def new_lead_email(email): send_templated_mail( template_name='new_lead', from_email='name@somewhere.com', recipient_list=['name@somewhere.com'], context={ 'email': email, 'current_time': str(datetime.now()), }, ) </code></pre> <p>In <code>landing_page_app.views</code>:</p> <pre><code>from email_app.views import new_lead_email new_lead_email(email) </code></pre> <p>I get a "TemplateDoesNotExist" error for "templated_email/new_lead.txt". The <code>new_lead_email</code> function works correctly when it is not imported into <code>landing_page_app.views</code> (i.e. if I have a Django URL call <code>new_lead_email</code> in <code>email_app.views</code> directly).</p> <p>In settings.py, I set <code>TEMPLATED_EMAIL_TEMPLATE_DIR</code> and <code>TEMPLATED_EMAIL_FILE_EXTENSION</code> to a directory that contains the "new_lead.email" template. This suggests that the vanilla_django.py file in django-templated-email (https://github.com/bradwhittington/django-templated-email/blob/master/templated_email/backends/vanilla_django.py) is not importing my settings.py file correctly. </p> <p>Do you have any suggestions for how to import functions in <code>email_app.views</code> into other files and have the templates work correctly. Thanks to bradwhittington for a VERY useful Django class. I look forward to learning how to use it correctly!</p>

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.
