Re: Help with integration of bootstrap and Django 1.4.3

Yes. Proper root referencing requires the preceeding / in /a/b

The django way i have seen is to generally create a /static/ directory

Put  /static in your static settings rather than /static/assets

place your files in respectively named  directories such as /static/js /static/css /static/images /static/html  etcetera

How I do this is in settings.py:

PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, '../static')

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATICFILES_DIRS = (

    # Put strings here, like "/home/html/static" or "C:/www/django/static".

    # Always use forward slashes, even on Windows.

    # Don't forget to use absolute paths, not relative paths.

    os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT,'../static/assets'),

)


In template files. 
 <link href="static/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

Shouldn't that be:

 <link href="/static/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen">

( /static/ ... instead of static/ ... )

If its missing the initial slash, the link would be relative to the current page, which would be fine at http://yourdomain.com or http://yourdomain.com/foo but would break if you were linking from http://yourdomain.com/foo/bar ..
