I am using django-leaflet to display on my website and It works fine and displays the map on browser when I include the leaflet_map in the base template but when I use leaflet_map on a template that extends that base template then map doesn't appear on the browser.
This is the code of extended template from base.html and it doesn't show the map on browser.
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load leaflet_tags %}
{% block leaflet %}{% leaflet_js %}{% leaflet_css %}{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
{% leaflet_map 'gis' %}
{% endblock content%}
These are the snippets from the base template.
{% load static %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>{% block title %} {% endblock %}</title>
<!-- Leaflet Info goes here -->
{% block leaflet %}{% endblock %}
</head>
<body>
<div class="content">
{% block content %}{% endblock %}
</div>

So I was able to setup Django with Tailwind following the instructions on the plugin page. But I can't get the base theme to show multiple blocks. It doesn't show the menu nor the footer, just the base html template with content from main.html. Can't get it to work!
If anyone else is running into this issue, you can't use multiple extends. You instead, include it in your base.
For me, I removed the {% extends %} tags from the ancillary pages, and then included them in my theme_base.html like:{% include 'theme_footer.html' %}
Basicly my django project consists of the templates with html.
I would like to fill the context of the site using blocks.
My problem is that I would like to send the block to sidebar and the base part of the page from application's .html files.
Templates:
sidebar.html
footer.html
header.html
base.html
In my base.html I use:
{% include 'partials/_sidebar.html' %}
{% block content %}{% endblock %}
in my sidebar.html I use
{% block sidebar %}{% endblock %}
and in my Application index.html i try to use:
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load static %}
{% block content %}
<h1>Home Page</h1>
{% endblock %}
{% block sidebar %}
<div class="bg-white py-2 collapse-inner rounded"></div>
<h6 class="collapse-header">Custom Components:</h6>
<a class="collapse-item" href="{% url 'veggies' %}">veggies</a>
<a class="collapse-item" href="{% url 'fruits' %}">fruits</a>
</div>
{% endblock %}
But it is obviously not working.
The starting page triggers app/index.html with a view.
How to workaround such a problem?

Hopefully I can demonstrate how you use blocks by sharing some example templates with you.
Starting with a base template, that generally has the most content and contains the basic markup;
{% load static %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<title>{% block title %}{% endblock title %}</title>
<meta name="description" content="{% block meta_description %}{% endblock meta_description %}">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1">
{% block styles %}{% endblock %}
{% block scripts %}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js" integrity="sha512-bLT0Qm9VnAYZDflyKcBaQ2gg0hSYNQrJ8RilYldYQ1FxQYoCLtUjuuRuZo+fjqhx/qtq/1itJ0C2ejDxltZVFg==" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/js-cookie/2.2.1/js.cookie.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://kit.fontawesome.com/c3c34cb042.js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
{% endblock %}
{% block head_extras %}{% endblock %}
</head>
<body>
{% block header %}{% endblock header %}
{% block content %}{% endblock content %}
{% block footer %}{% endblock footer %}
{% block footer_scripts %}
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/popper.js#1.16.0/dist/umd/popper.min.js" integrity="sha384-Q6E9RHvbIyZFJoft+2mJbHaEWldlvI9IOYy5n3zV9zzTtmI3UksdQRVvoxMfooAo" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.0/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-OgVRvuATP1z7JjHLkuOU7Xw704+h835Lr+6QL9UvYjZE3Ipu6Tp75j7Bh/kR0JKI" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
Then a page for content would extend that and you'd include in this template the blocks you want to add content to;
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% block title %}Content Page{% endblock title %}
{% block content %}
<section class="">
<div class="container-fluid container-xl">
<div class="content-section">
<h1 class="content-section__heading-1">Content Page</h1>
<p>Hello World!</p>
</div>
</div>
</section>
{% endblock content %}
That'd be a really simple setup. But as you've said, you might also use the {% include %} tag.
What that does is inject the content of the included template into the template at the point you use the tag.
So in a template with a sidebar, that might look like;
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% block title %}Sidebar Content Page{% endblock title %}
{% block content %}
<section class="">
<div class="container-fluid container-xl">
<div class="content-section">
<h1 class="content-section__heading-1">Content Page</h1>
<p>Hello World!</p>
</div>
{% include 'partials/_sidebar.html' %}
</div>
</section>
{% endblock content %}
I'm creating a Django project, where I want to use multiple levels of inheritance in my templates. E.g I want to do something like this:
project_base.html
{% load staticfiles %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>{% block title %}{% endblock %}</title>
<link href="{% static "css/bootstrap.min.css" %}" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
{% block content %}
{% endblock %}
</div>
</body>
</html>
Then in app_base.html I extend this.
{% extends "project/project_base.html" %}
{% block title %}Generic Title{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<img src="/dir/sub_dir/image.jpg">
{% block app_content %}
{% endblock %}
{% endblock %}
Finally I have my actual template
{% extends app_base.html %}
{% block title %}Specific Title{% endblock %}
{% block app_content %}
{% for obj in objects %}
{{ obj.name }}
{% endfor %}
{% endblock %}
The problem that I have is that when I go to load that page I see a single heading from an entirely unrelated template, and not my list of hyperlinks. What's the correct/best way to have multiple levels of inheritance for my template files?
I have two files, base.html and homepage.html. Homepage extends base, and adds to block extra. Base should render block extra in a span within the body, but doesn't.
base.html:
{% load sekizai_tags %}
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<span style="color: red;">{% render_block "extra" %}</span>
{% block 'content' %}
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
homepage.html:
{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load sekizai_tags %}
{% block 'content' %}
<p>that's some sweet content ya got there lad</p>
{% addtoblock "extra" %}wow{% endaddtoblock %}
{% endblock %}
And the output:
What really simple thing am I missing?
Aha, I was missing a context preprocessor from my templates.
'sekizai.context_processors.sekizai',
I have this in my base.html template file:
<body class="{% block body_class %}{% endblock %}">
Then this in my view template file:
{% block body_class %}my_class{%%}
The outputted HTML looks like this:
<body class="my_class">my_class ...
Am I missing something?
UPDATE
base.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
</head>
<body class="{% block body_class %}{% endblock %}">
{% block header %}{% endblock %}
{% block content %}{% endblock %}
{% block footer %}
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
app/base.html
{% extends 'base.html' %}
app/view.html
{% extends 'app/base.html' %}
{% block content %}
{% block body_class %}login{% endblock %}
{% endblock %}
SOLVED
Figured out while typing the update. The problem was in using the {% block body_class %} inside {% block content %}
