Description
I suggest making it explicit that the TEMPLATE_DIRS should be set in settings.py, and also pointing out that there is already an empty definition of it in the default file. I added it to the top and spent half an hour crawling through lots of other peoples' posts looking for help because their template overrides didn't take effect.
Otherwise I am finding the documentation to be excellent so far, thanks!

TEMPLATE_DIRS no longer appears in the default project template as of 3f1c7b70537330435e2ec2fca9550f7b7fa4372e so this seems moot.
Note:

for help on using tickets.
If you put your templates in
templatesdirectories within your apps, you don't need to setTEMPLATE_DIRS.There's a debate currently about whether using
TEMPLATE_DIRSshould be discouraged; some would like to put everything within apps.
