Due to a change in the way template tags are imported in Django 1.9, it has been necessary to move the Jinja2 template tag modules from "templatetags" to a new location, "jinja2tags". The correct configuration settings to enable Jinja2 templates are now as follows:
The following internal functions and methods in ``wagtail.wagtailcore.models``, which return a list of ``ContentType`` objects, have been deprecated. Any uses of these in your code should be replaced by the corresponding new function which returns a list of model classes instead:
In addition, note that these methods now return page types that are marked as ``is_creatable = False``, including the base ``Page`` class. (Abstract models are not included, as before.)
