Thanks,
I've initially tried to use a dictionary but was still unable to pull
the data in the template.
I'm using your updated context processor:
def swiss_context_processors(request):
added_context = { 'mytest': 'aaa', }
return added_context
and trying to call {{added_context.mytest}} in the template which
returns nothing
I've added the context processor to settings.py and when I run a
pdb.trace() from the context_processor I am able to print the variable
so it is being called + defined.
