16555	admin css / static content wasn't loading	leotreasure@…	nobody	"Hi,

Following this [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial02/] lead me to an admin page with no css styling. I mucked around for about an hour before working it out.

I asked on the IRC channel and was recommended this page [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/howto/static-files/] where I found the solution.

My suggestion is to add these steps onto the tutorial02 website:
set the STATIC_ROOT = ""/home/jacob/projects/mysite.com/sitestatic"" to your mysite static folder in settings.py
and
Run the collectstatic management command:
./manage.py collectstatic

Regards,

Leo"	Cleanup/optimization	closed	Documentation	1.3	Normal	invalid			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
