Custom skin not loading

I'm using askbot 0.11. I've followed the instructions here to create a custom skin:

  • Created a directory for skins <app_dir>/skins/customskin
  • Set the ASKBOT_EXTRA_SKINS_DIR setting to that dir
  • Created <app_dir>/skins/customskin/templates/base.html with some test HTML in there
  • In the /settings UI, set the skin to "customskin" (it shows in the dropdown so it apparently detects the directory)
  • Reloaded the site

The custom skin, however, is not showing. It still shows the default skin.
