title: Django admin/site_base.html overwrites my admin/site_base.html
body: <p>My admin/base_site.html doesn't load or gets overridden by django's admin/base_site.html. Please let me know what I'm missing out (I started recently)  </p>
  
  <p>I have my template at </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>BASE_DIR/templates/admin/base_site.html</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>In settings </p>
  
  <pre><code>TEMPLATES = [

          "BACKEND": "django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates",
          "DIRS": [
              os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "templates"),
          ],

  <p>EDIT: I made a mistake in my question, my template is actually at</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>PROJECT_ROOT/templates/admin/base_site.html</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>where <strong>PROJECT_ROOT</strong> is the directory of manage.py.</p>
