How do I override a shared wagtail admin template?












1















In wagtail currently a standard select is used for a one to many relation, and I'd like to override this to use a jquery UI autocomplete widget.



I found the template that renders the component in wagtail/admin/templates/wagtailadmin/shared/collection_chooser.html, so I Thought that by following the instructions I could override the template the way I would a base one, but unfortunately when I create myapp/templates/wagtailadmin/shared/collection_chooser.html it is not rendered in place of the base one. I did confirm that by creating myapp/templates/wagtailadmin/base.html that does get used.



How can I override this template short of editing the source?

  • 1) In your second filename you have collection_choose instead of chooser - is that a typo in your code, or just in this question? 2) In your INSTALLED_APPS list, does the app containing your custom template appear above wagtail.admin?

    thanks @gasman for the response. 1) Good catch, unfortunately just a typo in this question. 2) It does, I don't think the base.html override would work without it.

    Isn't there a package that does this for you? github.com/wagtail/wagtail-autocomplete

    Wagtail autocomplete uses a hook on insert_editror_js and is pages only. If you need the whole admin you can try the insert_global_admin_js hook. github.com/wagtail/wagtail-autocomplete/blob/master/… and docs.wagtail.io/en/v2.3/reference/…. I hope it helps.
