'TemplateDoesNotExist' can't get the solution - django

Question

I am starting in Django, but I am stuck with this problem
I have this structure in my VSCode Workspace
-Project1
__pycache__
__init__.py
asgi.py
settings.py
urls.py
views.py
wsgi.py
-templates
mytemplate.html
db.sqlite3
manage.py
I am trying to use a template that I built
urls.py
from Project1.views import salute
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('salute/', salute),
]
views.py
from django.template.loader import get_template
from django.shortcuts import render
class Persona(object):
def __init__(self, nombre, apellido):
self.nombre = nombre
self.apellido = apellido
def salute(request):
p1=Persona('Peter', 'Parker')
temas_del_curso = ['Plantillas', 'Modelos', 'Formularios', 'Vistas', 'Despliegue']
fecha_de_hoy = datetime.datetime.now()
return render(request, 'miplantilla.html', { 'nombre_persona' : p1.nombre, 'apellido_persona' : p1.apellido, 'fecha_de_hoy' : fecha_de_hoy, 'temas' : temas_del_curso })
They suggest I copy the directory path where my template is saved
settings.py
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': ['C:/Users/machine/Desktop/Django/Project1/templates'],
'APP_DIRS': True,
}
Also use the form Django suggests 'DIRS': BASE_DIR / 'templates' and the form [os.path.join (BASE_DIR, 'templates')] but the error continues

This is standard settings.py for full project.
Since I can't see your full source code, I can't solve out issue directly.
Take a reference from it.
