Make django-multisite location independant

[daks]

Hi,

the actual code of the application enforce the 'installation' in the actual project directory, where it can find the 'templates' one.
It should be interesting to be able to install django-multisite systemwide or anywhere in the PYTHONPATH without this restriction.

Please look at the following patch which i think solves the problem (using TEMPLATE_DIRS[0]):

--- a/multisite/template_loader.py
+++ b/multisite/template_loader.py
@@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ from django.contrib.sites.models import Site
from django.conf import settings

def get_template_sources(template_name, template_dirs=None):
-    template_dir = os.path.join(os.path.normpath(os.path.dirname(__file__)), '..', 'templates', Site.objects.get_current().domain)
+    template_dir = os.path.join(settings.TEMPLATE_DIRS[0], Site.objects.get_current().domain)
    try:
      yield safe_join(template_dir, template_name)
    except UnicodeDecodeError:

Thank you.
Has laid your patch, but it vsetaki is not the problem with downloading templates.

Maybe call to os.path.join with TEMPLATE_DIRS needs to be enclosed in a try: except statement, because if TEMPLATE_DIRS does not exist an exception will be raised.

sorry but what is 'vsetaki'?

thanks for quick reaction

OK, I think that this can be done.
the word was "all the same":)
