Comment:

 I probably wouldn't include the alternative in the tutorial itself since
 `site_header` is already linked to the admin docs. The instructions are on
 that page:
   "If you’d like to set up your own administrative site with custom
 behavior, however, you’re free to subclass AdminSite and override or add
 anything you like. Then, simply create an instance of your AdminSite
 subclass (the same way you’d instantiate any other Python class), and
 register your models and ModelAdmin subclasses with it instead of using
 the default."

 but a code example would be helpful.

 I'd guess maybe you didn't setup the directory structure quite right in
 order for template overriding to work. It should be
 `mysite/templates/admin` and not `mysite/mysite/templates/admin`.
