While defining URLs for a user password reset flow, I am using standard
Django views such as PasswordResetView.
{{{#!python
path(
"password_reset/",
django.contrib.auth.views.PasswordResetView.as_view(),
name="password_reset",
),
path(
"reset/<uidb64>/<token>/",
auth_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),
name="password_reset_confirm",
),
}}}
The
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.PasswordResetView
PasswordResetView] and
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.views.PasswordResetView
PasswordResetConfirmView] docs say it will look for a template called
''registration/password_reset_form.html'' and
"registration/password_reset_confirm.html" respectively and render that if
available. When I define a template with the same name and location, the
custom template is not discovered by the PasswordResetView nor
PasswordResetConfirmView. Instead, the default Django Admin templates are
rendered. This is despite other built in views like LoginView being able
to fine conventionally named templates in the ''same'' directory.
Of note, the two problematic views are both responsible for rendering and
validating forms during the password reset flow.
In order to work around the issue, I have had to move the custom template
to a different template path specified via the template_name argument to
the PasswordResetView:
{{{#!python
path(
"password_reset/",
django.contrib.auth.views.PasswordResetView.as_view(
template_name="accounts/password_reset_form.html",
),
name="password_reset",
),
path(
"reset/<uidb64>/<token>/",
auth_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(
template_name="accounts/password_reset_confirm.html",
),
name="password_reset_confirm",
),
}}}
In honesty, it is very possible that I have made a typo in the file name,
but I have tried multiple times with the same result.
