Your login template has a syntax error as you did not escape the apostrophe (') in your string literal. Change the following

{{ site_header|default:('Kweli's webby') }}

to

{{ site_header|default:_("Kweli's webby") }}

Also note the underscore (_) before the string argument which is used for localization. If you don't need multiple languages, you can get rid of parantheses and simply write

{{ site_header|default:"Kweli's webby" }}
