Menu
I have been looking at this tutorial and now have a stylesheet in /static/styles/.
The problem is that the template doesn't pick this up:
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="static/css/stylesheet.css" />
<title>Search</title>
</head>
<body>
...
Do I need something in my settings file? Where am I going wrong?
My project structure is:
project
- manage.py
- project
- static
- templates
- __init__
- etc..
EDIT My urls.py now looks like this:
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
from bible import views
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.conf import settings
urlpatterns = patterns('',
# Examples:
# url(r'^$', 'bible.views.home', name='home'),
# url(r'^blog/', include('blog.urls')),
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
url(r'^verses/', views.search),
) + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
And this is my view.py file
from django.http import HttpResponse, Http404
from django.shortcuts import render
from bible.models import TBbe, TBookNames
def search(request):
errors = []
if 'b' in request.GET:
if 'c' in request.GET:
if 'v' in request.GET:
book = request.GET['b']
chapter = request.GET['c']
verse = request.GET['v']
verses = TBbe.objects.filter(b=book, c=chapter, v=verse)
book = TBookNames.objects.filter(id=book)
books = TBookNames.objects.all;
return render(request, 'verses.html', {'verses': verses, 'book': book, 'books': books})
else:
raise Http404()
else:
raise Http404()
else:
books = TBookNames.objects.all;
return render(request, 'search_verses.html', {'books': books})

The problem seemed to be that I needed the following code in my settings.py file:
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'static').replace('\\','/'),
)
which is the same as the code to reference my templates folder. If you put the static files at the same level, it should work. This is also providing you have followed the advice of everyone on here, importing static etc.
