Issue
I am doing the Tango with Django tutorial. I am using Django version 3.1.1. I was able to get my image to load on the local link 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/static/images/rango.jpg'
I am not getting it to load on to the index.html the code is
<!DOCTYPE html>
{% load static %}
<html>
<head>
<title> Rango</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Rango says...</h1>
<div>
hey there partner! <br />
<strong>{{ boldmessage }} </strong><br />
</div>
<div>
<a href="/rango/about/">About</a><br />
<img src="{% static
'images/rango.jpg' %}"
alt="Picture of Rango" />
</div>
</body>
</html>I did try removing the "alt=" in html but that didn't work.
I do not think the problem is my settings.py, but I'll share some parts of the settings.py anyway.
TEMPLATE_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'templates') # this is the file path for templates
STATIC_DIR = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'static') # this is the file path for static
STATICFILES_DIRS = [STATIC_DIR,]
...
#At the very bottom...
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
Solution
So the problem ended up being how the image html was wrapped. It needs to be one line, like below.
<img src="{% static 'images/rango.jpg' %}"alt="Picture of Rango" />
