Displaying images in comments/text fields

Thanks, but my real problem turned out to be a missing comma after the staticfiles_dirs entry. After adding it I was able to see files stored on my hard drive. On Wednesday, July 17, 2013 2:07:42 AM UTC-4, Lukáš Němec wrote: > > Hi, > > You are not the first to have trouble when serving

Hi, You are not the first to have trouble when serving images from django's built-in server. It is not only images, but all staticfiles. I'd like to clarify your settings.py The directory you have put in STATICFILES_DIRS will be available to django as /static/ in your web app, but you need

Re: displaying images

Hi, did you read and do the tutorials? If not do it and you will learn a lot. [1] In the tutorial you would learn that you would not want to write HTML code inside a view (function) but in a HTML template. You should also read about how to server static media.[2] [1]

Re: Displaying images

Are your settings properly set up? Can you confirm that you are able to print settings.MEDIA_URL in your view? MEDIA_URL defaults to the empty string, so that seems like the problem. Then, pass in the request context as I described previously. >From
