Since you can't access it directly in a template, that leaves only the former option ("best practice" is not to attempt the impossible). Pass it in. If you find yourself needing a particular setting regularly, you could set up a context processor to populate context with the value(s) you require, just like the media context processor does (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/api/#django-core-context-processors-media ) Regards, Malcolm --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
