@ -147,4 +147,30 @@ the `template_folder` parameter to the :class:`Blueprint` constructor::

As for static files, the path can be absolute or relative to the blueprint
resource folder.
resource folder. The template folder is added to the searchpath of
templates but with a lower priority than the actual application's template
folder. That way you can easily override templates that a blueprint
provides in the actual application.
So if you have a blueprint in the folder ``yourapplication/admin`` and you
want to render the template ``'admin/index.html'`` and you have provided
``templates`` as a `template_folder` you will have to create a file like
this: ``yourapplication/admin/templates/admin/index.html``.
Building URLs
-------------
If you want to link from one page to another you can use the
:func:`url_for` function just like you normally would do just that you
prefix the URL endpoint with the name of the blueprint and a dot (``.``)::
url_for('admin.index')
Additionally if you are in a view function of a blueprint or a rendered
template and you want to link to another endpoint of the same blueprint,
you can use relative redirects by prefixing the endpoint with a dot only::
url_for('.index')
This will link to ``admin.index`` for instance in case the current request
was dispatched to any other admin blueprint endpoint.
