I have a Django test project that I am working on, and have been working on it for hours now, and I am stuck. I can't add other html syntax into my html file that extends a base template into it.
I have a base template that works on my html view, however, when I make changes inside the html view, it doesn't reflect. Looks like I am missing something between the HTML view, and the base template.
Below is the HTML view
<!DOCTYPE html>
{% extends "base.html" %}
<!--https://www.anwita-arun.in/ -->
{% block head %}
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test Project</title>
</head>
{% endblock %}
{% block body %}
<body>
<h1 style="font-size: 250px"> Testing </h1>
<p> aloha </p>
<form method="POST">
<!-- Form creation with post. No method "post" needed -->
{% csrf_token %}
<!-- Insert token -->
{{ form.as_p }}
<!-- form variable -->
<input type="submit">
<!-- Form input submission -->
</form>
</body>
{% endblock %}
Below is the base template
<!DOCTYPE html>
<!--https://www.anwita-arun.in/ -->
<html lang="en">

It doesn't work like that, when you extends from base.html, you only have to override the blocks, it should be something like:
base.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/main.css" media="screen" />
{% block head %}
{% endblock %}
</head>
<body>
<p>This p tag will always be shown</p>
{% block content %}
<p>This content is a placeholder, will be overridden.</p>
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
In your inherited template
{% extend 'base.html' %}
{% block head %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/my_extra_custom_css.css" media="screen" />
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<h1>Content from my app, overriding the placeholder.</h1>
{% endblock %}

depending on the location of your base image you should try:
{% extends "<DJANGO_APP>/base.html" %}
