Maybe there is an issue with the way django is serving the docs. Try the
following:
- in your base urls.py, add the following:
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
In case this doesn't work, would it be possible for you to post the
relevant part of the code and some screenshots?
Hope this helps.
