Re: Help on adding CSS to django project

It seems that you need to setup your web server to support static contents, django has a middleware to do the job, but it is not recommended to use it in product environment. I had this similar problem when I started to learn django.

Hi,

The way I have approached this is to have a static dir set in my urls.py:

 

(r'^static/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {

            'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT }

         )

settings.py has the following

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(PATH_SITE_ROOT, 'static')

PATH_SITE_ROOT = os.path.normpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))

I reference the css files in the html as /static/css/style.css etc

The urls.py maps the url to the location on disk of the css files.

Can you supply the error messages and some of your config if you are still having issues?
