I tried doing this: enter image description here

from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.shortcuts import render

def home(request):
    return render(request, 'templates/index.html')

But my page says that TemplateDoesNotExist.

enter image description here

What should I do?

Create a folder 'justcolor' under templates directory and save index.html in it. change path to 'justcolor/index.html'. return render(request, 'justcolor/index.html')

  • `templates` better be a subdir of the app, not of the project. And I think the template path is case sensitive too, so it's `justColor/index.html` – Niloct Apr 04 '20 at 03:34
  • I don't have an app for this project. This simply is the subdirectory for my project – Zedd Apr 04 '20 at 03:40

Make sure you have configured urls.py and views.py correctly.

This question is already answered here :Django TemplateDoesNotExist?

Make a templates\justColor subdirectory template inside your justColor folder and move index.html to there. Then as @Neeraj said you can change render call to render(request, 'justColor/index.html').

(Although you should read this part of the django tutorial which will help you more than any trial-and-error in this subject: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/intro/tutorial03/)

  • @ZeddrixFabian you've probably changed the `DIRS` variable on `settings.py` to add the template directory right ? My answer was a secondary option when you enable apps on the settings file. – Niloct Apr 05 '20 at 03:50
