And if you want:

This application is useful when you want to overwrite a template of a application in your project. Currently this in Django produce infinite recursion

This is an example with django.contrib.admin app, but django-smart-extends works with any application, this is not only to the admin site. This is very useful if you use reusable django apps or any CMS implemented in django.

If you set OVERWRITE_EXTENDS = True

file:admin/change_list.html

{% extends "admin/change_list.html" %}

{% block extrastyle %}
    {{ block.super }}
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="XXX" />
{% endblock %}

Else:

file:admin/change_list.html

{% smart_extends "admin/change_list.html" %}

{% block extrastyle %}
    {{ block.super }}
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="XXX" />
{% endblock %}

If you set TEMPLATE_DEBUG = False in settings.py you must patch the django code. You can find the patch in the patches directoy:

patch -p2 -N -d my/path/of/django/ < ./patches/patch.diff
