Defining “global variable” in Django templates

Question

I\'m doing something like:

{% extends \'base.html\' %}
{% url myapp.views.dashboard object as object_url %}
{% block sidebar %}
... {{ object_url }} ...
{% e         


        

Answer 1

In every inherited template any code outside blocks redefinitions is not executed. So in your example you have to call {% url %} tag inside each block or use context processor for setting "global" variable.
