I'm having a really strange issue trying to get the staticfiles
taglib working in my application. I'm essentially getting the following error:
'staticfiles' is not a valid tag library: Template library staticfiles not found, tried django.templatetags.staticfiles,django.contrib.admin.templatetags.staticfiles
Here's my template which is throwing this error:
{% load staticfiles %}
<html>
<head>
{% block stylesheets %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static "styles/bootstrap-1.2.0.min.css" %}">
{% endblock %}
<title>{% block title %}Tzibor{% endblock %}</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>It Works!</h1>
{% block scripts %}
<script type="text/javascript" src="{% static "scripts/jquery-1.6.2.min.js" %}"></script>
{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>
Here's my settings.py
:
DEBUG = True
TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG
ADMINS = (

MANAGERS = ADMINS
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',

}

USE_I18N = True
USE_L10N = True
MEDIA_ROOT = '' # abs fs path to upload dir

'django.contrib.sites',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.admindocs',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'project.web',
'south',
)
Essentially, I followed the guide available in Django's documentation on how to set up the static serving application, and got this error. Can anyone see what the issue is? Am I missing something?
Full stacktrace here.
You probably are running django 1.3 right!?
So, notice the difference between django dev(1.4) and django 1.3:
So if you wanna use "{% load staticfiles %}" u must be using django dev(1.4+)
This is how to use in django 1.3 :
{% load static %}
<img src="{% get_static_prefix %}images/hi.jpg" />
