title: How to properly add template tags to a django project
body: <p>I am playing with <a href="https://github.com/GiriB/django-gentelella" rel="nofollow noreferrer">django-gentelella</a> and try to add custom template tags to the project.</p>
  
  <p>According to the latest Django documentation, one should add a "templatetags" directory, at the same level as models.py, views.py, etc. Also, an <strong>init</strong>.py file should be placed in the directory.</p>
  
  <p>I added my template tags into a file called "template_tags.py" and restarted the server. In my templates, I load the file using "{% load template_tags %}" at the top of the file.</p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately, this does not work yet. According to the Django documentation, it is also required to add the template_filters to the INSTALLED APPS. </p>
  
  <p>My problem is that I cannot figure out how to get the right path in dot notation. Can anyone point me in the right direction?</p>
