Having trouble with CSS in my Django template,
My settings.py looks like this:
BASE_DIR = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__) + '/')
STATIC_URL = BASE_DIR + '/static/'
I have a folder called "static/css/home_css.css" in my paths.
In my template home.html, I've added the following link tag:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{{ STATIC_URL }}css/home_css.css" media="all" />
However, the CSS is not rendering. If anyone knows why, please help.
STATIC_URL should always refer to the static URL, while STATIC_ROOT points to the actual directory in the filesystem.
import os
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
STATIC_URL = "/static/"
To configure your settings.py, insert
'django.core.context_processors.static',TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS list as shown in the example below:
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
'django.core.context_processors.debug',
'django.core.context_processors.i18n',
'django.core.context_processors.media',
'django.core.context_processors.static',
'django.core.context_processors.request',
'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
)
UPDATE
If you are using the local development server, add this line to your urls.py:
(r'static/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': '%s' % os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)), 'static')}),Hurray! I managed to solve the issue by placing my static directory in the application root path and configuring the STATIC_URL to '/static/'
Many thanks!
