As my 0.02 cents of new comer I can confirm this was one of the things that slows adoption of Django. Proposed change to have ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX to be /admin_media/ (or either /media/admin/ ) makes more sense (at least for me). When I started with django I was confused with when I used /media for my media (as suggested in doc) just to find out my admin section is not working properly anymore. I either copy the admin folder from <somwhere to django installation folder> to /media or I now change ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX to be /admin_media/ and setup a static server in my urls.conf and I'm pretty sure this not the right way anyway (it works but not out of the box).
Than I had to disturb people in IRC and mailing lists and I'm pretty sure a lot of newcomers do the same. And since you promote DJANGO to be easy to use you have to expect really newcomers with hardly any Apache, project folder organization, mod_python experience at all. Not gurus like you are, for whom this seems such a trivial change to not even bother with it. This is when I find Yuris comment about not understanding your users requirements to be correct and valid. Although I like Django very much I really cannot understand why there is such a lot of everyones effort wasted on such a small and clean up or cosmetic (remember django fav icon issue?) changes instead of just doing them. I use 0.96 and I'm pretty sure the SVN code is already a lot of backward incompatible right? all the best --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
