You'll understand the difference between DEBUG mode and deployement mode
concerning static files.

Thanks for your response. I have a directory called
/home/enfors/PyVarm/static, that's the one which is served when debug
== True, and PyVarm is obviously the name of the project. So by your
description, I take it PyVarm is the name of my Mezzanine / Django
"app". But where is the top-level /static? I find no other directories
called static on my machine, outside the Mezzanine-related ones under
site-packages in my virtual environment. Is it defined in a config
file somewhere?
These are all (well, most of) my directories under /home/enfors/PyVarm:

Hi Christer.
The collectstatic command is a Django concept, not something
specific to Mezzanine. Even though it requires more time, a strong
foundation on Django will make your time with Mezzanine much more
productive.
When you use Django's dev server, it will look into the /static
directory inside each of your apps. In production, all static
files should be served from the top-level /static directory. You
need to copy all files scattered across the app directories into
this central location, and that's what the command does.
You need to make sure your production sever is routing the
/static/ url of your site to this top level /static folder. The
nginx config included with mezzanine does that by default.

I don't understand how the "collectstatic" stuff works. I have
a static directory, and inside it there are files. But if I
turn off debugging in settings.py, then the files inside
static/ suddenly give me a 404, meaning I only get a very
bare-bones page with no CSS, no images, etc. But the files are
still there, in the static/ directory. It's as if it's looking
in a different static/ depending on if debug is turned on or off.
This would be a lot easier if I could find some documentation
about Mezzanine /as a CMS/ - the documentation I found is for
programming extensions for it from what I can tell. And it's
great that there's documentation for that, but that's not what
I'm looking for right now.
I suspect that I am supposed to learn Django to learn how this
stuff works, and sure, I could do that. But I'd rather not,
right now. I just want to use Mezzanine as a CMS.
