Hello @sridhar562345,
Try to edit the dashboard page. The link for the main dashboard is thin one apps/templates/home/index.html
https://github.com/app-generator/django-volt-dashboard/blob/master/apps/templates/home/index.html
Hello @app-generator ,
I am installing it as a custom admin theme using:
pip install django-admin-volt
So where should I place my customized HTML file inside my Django app to override default templates?

@sridhar562345 were you able to replace the default HTML file? I'm trying to do the same thing.

Hi @dlopespenna,
You will have to fork the repo and change the template according to your use case, that's the only way I got succeded. I wasn't able to do this by replacing the templates directly in the Django templates.

Hi @dlopespenna and @sridhar562345
You can override or replace by adding your own file to a directory called admin
somewhere on your template search path (defined in settings.TEMPLATES
). For example, in my settings I have
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': ...,
'DIRS': [ BASE_DIR \ 'templates' ],
},
]
and then I can override the dashboard default by adding my own templates/admin/index.html
.
The documentation doesn't provide much info on working with django-admin-volt
, but you can generally just follow the normal Django documentation on the admin page.

I have copied templates and templatetags from the admin-volt in library to my app. I am facing issue related to templatetags. Apparently you have to add app in settings which is already in installed apps becuase it is my main app. I even renamed the templatetags py file to app name. Screenshot attached for reference.
Please guide me what I am doing wrong in this case.
