Yeah, read that post and I disagree. Introducing yet another name on the filesystem (theme) certainly isn't helping people (this thread and many others show there's enough confusion already). It makes more sense to have a 1:1 mapping between variable naming in settings.py and directories on the filesystem e.g. STATIC_ROOT to static_root, STATIC_DIRS to static/<foo>. Plus, Django is not Joomla or Plone or... so thinking in terms of "themes" is semantically wrong as it makes you think of Django as a CMS (one layer to high). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
