"Templates which may be overridden per app or model Not every template in contrib/admin/templates/admin may be overridden per app or per model. The following can:

app_index.html

change_form.html

change_list.html

delete_confirmation.html

object_history.html

For those templates that cannot be overridden in this way, you may still override them for your entire project. Just place the new version in your templates/admin directory. This is particularly useful to create custom 404 and 500 pages."

Where must I put the submit_line.html file in order to change it? I have got my TEMPLATE DIRS set up for multiple paths. This is what my file structure looks like:

app/
    templates/
        app/
project_name/
templates/
    admin/
        project_name/
            app/

Have you tried this page? https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/ref/contrib/admin/#overriding-admin-templates or this? http://stackoverflow.com/a/8447818/939803 – Filipe Manuel Jul 29 '13 at 18:53
@FilipeManuel, I had been looking on the first link and cannot make it work. The second link, since its posting, has been updated and doesn't work. – reZach Jul 29 '13 at 18:59

Try putting in "templates/admin" as written on documentation. In your case in templates of your project app. – Filipe Manuel Jul 29 '13 at 20:27
