I'm starting to learn Django and have been reading through the
djangobook.com. I am able to get the code running when I come to
Chapter 6: The Django Admin Site, but it looks nothing like the
well-formed and well-styled screenshots in the documentation. The text
appears ragged and unstyled.
Am I missing a CSS stylesheet to make the admin interface line up and
get styled properly? How can I fix this?
Yes. If you "View page source" in your browser you should see something
like this ...
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/static/admin/css/base.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="/static/admin/css/dashboard.css" />
So if the stylesheets cannot be found, which web server are you using?
If you are not using the Django dev server, you need to configure your
web server to look for such static files in a particular location
(defined in settings.py as STATIC_ROOT) then run "manage.py
collectstatic" to put them there.
