Django 1.8 >
TEMPLATE_LOADERS setting deprecated.
You have to use the TEMPLATES dictionary.
I think you're going to want something like:

settings.py

TEMPLATES = [
{
    'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
    'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "templates")],
    'OPTIONS': {
        'context_processors': [
            'django.template.context_processors.debug',
            'django.template.context_processors.request',
            'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
            'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
        ],
        'loaders':[
            'admin_tools.template_loaders.Loader',
            ('django.template.loaders.cached.Loader', [
            'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader',
            'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
            ]),
        ],
    },
},

]

also note – django 1.8 moved from django.core.context_processors to django.template.context_processors

from django-admin-tools.

But have you correctly configured django-admin-tools ?

Since versions 0.7.x, you must add admin_tools.template_loaders.Loader to your template loaders as stated in the release notes and in the documentation.

@sztankatt Got exactly the same issue when upgrading Django from 1.8.7 to 1.9.1

from django-admin-tools.

@Anton-Shutik Yeah, although I have Django 1.8.5. Also, to clarify, I am running it on ubuntu 14.04 locally.

@izimobil
That helped for me!

Thanks!

I'm having the same problem with Django 1.7 but followed the documentation. Django's also whining about admin_tools.template_loaders.TemplateLoader even after I add it to TEMPLATE_LOADERS:

urls.py

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^admin_tools/', include('admin_tools.urls')),
    url(r'^admin/',  include(admin.site.urls)),
    ...
)

settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'admin_tools',
    'admin_tools.theming',
    'admin_tools.menu',
    'admin_tools.dashboard',

    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    ...
)

TEMPLATES_LOADERS = (
    "admin_tools.template_loaders.Loader",
)

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
    "django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth",
    "django.core.context_processors.debug",
    "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
    "django.core.context_processors.media",
    "django.core.context_processors.static",
    "django.core.context_processors.request",
)

You have a typo in your template loaders variable... s/TEMPLATES_LOADERS/TEMPLATE_LOADERS/ . Also, you should put the default Django loaders in it.

from django-admin-tools.

Solved my problem. Fixed the variable name and included the Django loaders as @izimobil advised. Thanks!

from django-admin-tools.

This is already documented.

from django-admin-tools.

Only saw the call to the deprecated TEMPLATE_LOADERS variable. Pardon me for trying to help.

from django-admin-tools.

Sorry, I didn't meant to be rude :) thanks for your help, if you want to make a pull request on the documentation, you are welcome.

from django-admin-tools.

Perhaps I was a bit touchy. Apologies.

from django-admin-tools.

Thanks @arsenalstriker14 your config worked within django 2
