If your software works then I guess it works, but I just ran this in the
shell on Django 1.5.4.
$ python manage.py shell
Python 2.7.3 (default, May 4 2012, 11:07:18)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> from django.conf import settings
>>> settings.STATIC_URL
'/static/'
>>> settings.DEBUG
False
>>> from django.http import HttpRequest
>>> r = HttpRequest()
>>> from django.template import Template
>>> t = Template("{{ STATIC_URL }}")
>>> from django.template import RequestContext
>>> c = RequestContext(r, {})
>>> t.render(c)
u'/static/'
>>> import django
>>> django.get_version()
'1.5.4'
If you look at django.core.context_processors you can see that the
STATIC_URL is placed in the RequestContext unconditionally on line 65:
