    <p>It is not clear what you are asking, but as I understand it, your question is:</p> <blockquote> <p>What's the most elegant way to pass the alternate template to the view in bar?</p> </blockquote> <p>This has nothing to do with the url conf, which just maps URLs to methods.</p> <p>Templates in django are looked up from locations in <code>TEMPLATE_DIRS</code> in your settings.py, and most importantly <em>django will stop looking once it finds a template</em>.</p> <p>If your <code>TEMPLATE_DIRS</code> is blank (as is the default), then django will look for templates in a <code>templates</code> directory inside any registered apps (apps listed in <code>INSTALLED_APPS</code>).</p> <p>So, to pass an alternate template to any application, simply create a file with the same name (and directory structure) in a directory that is listed in <code>TEMPLATE_DIRS</code>. Django will search this first, and stop when it finds a match.</p> <p>This is the same way you override default admin templates.</p> <p>For your particular case, suppose you want to pass an alternate version of <code>index.html</code> to the app <code>bar</code>.</p> <p>Create a directory <code>override_templates</code> somewhere in your project path.</p> <p>Inside that create <code>bar/templates/</code> directory, and add your customized <code>index.html</code> to this directory, so you have <code>override_templates/bar/templates/index.html</code>.</p> <p>Add the full path to <code>override_templates</code> to <code>TEMPLATE_DIRS</code> in <code>settings.py</code>.</p> <p>Now django will first search your custom directory for any templates requested, and will load your alternate index.html.</p>

    1. COI'll look into this approach, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. What if I wanted to pass in some other argument to the view? The view gets called in the urlconf, so that seems like the logical place to pass the argument.

    3. COYes, similar to the arguments that you'd pass to a generic view from the urlconf.

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.
