in settings.py add: TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ( 'django.core.context_processors.auth', 'django.core.context_processors.request', ) and in every view import: from django.template import RequestContext adn finally when you make a render to response: return render_to_response ( "TEMPLATEFILE", {}, context_instance = RequestContext ( request ), ) ARIEL ( 000PaRaDoX000 ) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
