21313	load tag before extends	ztorstri@…	nobody	"I'd like to be able to load a template tag before extends. I don't want to use a context processor because I don't want every view that uses RequestContext to get the variable.  Here's the detailed situation:

I'm designing an app, and I want the ""base.html"" template to be a configurable in the settings file.  So a user downloads my application, goes to the settings file, adds the setting ""BASE_TEMPLATE_NAME=somestring"", and then all of my templates automatically inherit this base template.

If I use a context processor, then every other page on their site that uses RequestContext will get this variable as well.  I tried to use a template tag to return the base template setting, but I can't put anything before extends."	New feature	closed	Uncategorized	1.5	Normal	needsinfo			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
