Description

As far as I could see, there was no way to include userdefined taglibs into a django app except by extending django.templatetags. I might well have missed something, though. Be that as it may, I found it to be quickest to hack django.core.defaulttags to try and load taglibs from paths provided in TEMPLATETAG_DIRS in your config. I'll try to upload the patch here.

There actually is: see the {% load %} tag, which looks in each installed app's "templatetags" directory. I'll have some docs on this up tonight, but until then you can check out the blog app in the djangoproject website.

Funny, the first thing I did was to try creating a "templatetags" directory, but that did not seem to work. I'll take a look at the blog app, though. Thanks!

Tried it again, this time it worked. Maybe I missed creating the init.py in my first try. Forget the patch, and thanks for the help!

Reopening since I still should document how this works :)

Closing this, because we have quite a bit of more documentation to write, and it's inefficient to open a ticket for each piece of documentation we need to write.
