I have a model Category, and I want its objects to always be displayed in a navigation menu in my base.html template (which all of my other templates extend).
I want to learn best-practices so would like to know what the correct/accepted way of providing this data to the template is.
You could create a custom tag for the categories and place it in the base template. That way you wont have to send a “category” variable to the context on every view ..
Good Luck
