I'm currently implementing Django-fiber on a project of ours. However I find the documentation very lacking. I'm trying to use custom content-templates for different chunks of content on the site.

I've added the 

FIBER_CONTENT_TEMPLATE_CHOICES = (
('', 'Default template'),
('three-columns.html', 'Special template'),
)

However I cant seem to use the three-columns.html template, which I have placed in the template dir of django-fiber. The custom templates for pages works perfectly.

I would love some feedback from someone who's been working with fiber.

Not sure exactly how you have it setup but I just added PROJECT/templates to TEMPLATES_DIRS in settings.py. Inside that I have a fiber subdirectory with my own templates.

Fiber settings like this:

FIBER_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE = 'fiber/content_base.html'
FIBER_CONTENT_TEMPLATE_CHOICES = (
    ('', 'Default template'),
    ('fiber/three-columns.html', 'Special template'),
)

If you are adding template by having an app then it will be looking for:

PROJECT/App_name/templates/three-columns.html

Remember if you change FIBER_CONTENT_TEMPLATE_CHOICES you will also need to update the database record.
