[Django]-Django custom admin dashboard error

I’ve encountered the same problem! Thank you for your answer, but it seems that your answer is so simplified that I initially could not understand it. Allow me to elaborate so that others may be able to resolve similar issues.

Suppose you have a directory structure like this:

 myproj
    ├── myproj

    ├── settings.py
    ├── manage.py
    ├── urls.py
    ├── grappelli
    │   ├── ...
    ├── myapp
    │   ├── __init__.py
    │   ├── __init__.pyc

After you execute the following:

    python manage.py customdashboard 

The dashboard.py is generated in the myproj (the first one) directory, the directory structure will look something like this:

myproj
├── myproj
├── dashboard.py
├── settings.py
├── manage.py
├── urls.py
├── grappelli
│   ├── ...
├── myapp
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── __init__.pyc

You should put the dashboard.py file in the myproj/myproj directory. Then you login to the adminsite and you will find it works. This is not clearly described in the Dashboard Setup
