If you're on PythonAnywhere, there's an extra flag you need to provide when installing modules. More information on this help page.

I am pretty sure that is because on my PC I have older Django version On sever in newer, how to resolve that issue

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 10, 2017, 8:55 p.m. | permalink

yup- that's because it's been deprecated and not available on django 1.10

you can either change your code for the more updated django version or use a virtualenv to use a lower django version.

deleted-user-2014455 | 167 posts | Jan. 11, 2017, 2 a.m. | permalink

Here's a link to the documentation on how to use a virtualenv for a website on PythonAnywhere. If you use one you can choose any version of Django you want.

giles | 12085 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | Jan. 11, 2017, 3:31 p.m. | permalink

I am not sure if I want to change django version. It would be better to update code

But How can update code as below error indicates that fault is in froala editor Can I edit it's files or how this can be solved:

File "/home/dzikuss98/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/froala_editor/urls.py", line 1, in <module>

It looks like the version that package on PyPI (which is the one you'd install with pip3.5) is quite old -- see this github issue. I suggest you install the latest version directly from github using the command

pip3.5 install --user git+https://github.com/froala/django-froala-editor

...in a bash console, and see if that helps.

giles | 12085 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | Jan. 12, 2017, 12:30 p.m. | permalink

hi there, thanks for assistance that helped!

but I have another issue, froala WYSIWYG is not showing in admin. No idea why, I had edited some models and run migration but there was nothing to migrate

I have same code as in local version but WYSIWYG is not showing :(

Are you correctly serving the files necessary for the editor to work? Check your browser network debugger to see whether the files are being retrieved by the browser.

glenn | 9718 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | Jan. 13, 2017, 11:26 a.m. | permalink

thanks for update..........

But I am on basic level and not sure how to check what you advised

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 13, 2017, 7:35 p.m. | permalink

Look in the network section of your browser developer tools while you load the page where you expect the editor to be. See if there are requests for the editor javascript and whether they are successful.

I took a look at your webapp config, and I think there's a problem there. You're mapping STATIC_ROOT to the directory containing your static files. You should use the actual value of STATIC_ROOT, as it is set in settings.py -- not the string "STATIC_ROOT"

giles | 12085 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | Jan. 14, 2017, 5:27 p.m. | permalink

Oh, and you'll need to reload the website (using the button at the top of the "Web" tab) after you've done that.

giles | 12085 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | Jan. 14, 2017, 5:27 p.m. | permalink

I am sorry but I do not understand, which file you mean as webapp cofig?

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 16, 2017, 7:24 p.m. | permalink

settings.py probably, vs what you have in the PythonAnywhere webapps tab (there is a section about static file mappings)

deleted-user-2014455 | 167 posts | Jan. 17, 2017, 3:48 a.m. | permalink

ok, thanks for assistans

so in webapp config I have entered this values:

URL                     Directory
STATIC_ROOT /home/dzikuss98/My-stuff/mysite/personal/Static

and this is from settings.py

STATIC_ROOT = '/home/dzikuss98/My-stuff/mysite/personal/Static/'

I am not sure what is wrong here. I just copied initially path from settings to webapp config

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 17, 2017, 9:51 p.m. | permalink

STATIC_ROOT is not a URL, it's a variable name. Have a look at the docs for setting up statis files: here and here

glenn | 9718 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | Jan. 18, 2017, 12:39 p.m. | permalink

I it is a bit better now :)

all ccs is working fine now except froala editor css, see below:

Request URL:http://dzikuss98.pythonanywhere.com/Static/froala_editor/css/froala_editor.min.css
Request Method:GET
Status Code:404 Not Found
Remote Address:50.19.109.98:80

issue is here that css for froala should be in this path : http://dzikuss98.pythonanywhere.com/Static/froala_editor

but froala_editor doesn't exists. I though that it will be created after running collectstatic, but still not there

Do you know how to make this work

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 19, 2017, 6:26 p.m. | permalink

is fraola editor supposed to automatically have those static files?

deleted-user-2014455 | 167 posts | Jan. 20, 2017, 5:50 p.m. | permalink

no idea..... how I can check it?

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 20, 2017, 6:01 p.m. | permalink

hi All,

does anyone have any suggestions for this?

deleted-user-1985234 | 34 posts | Jan. 24, 2017, 5:45 p.m. | permalink

Looks like you probably need to copy the static files from your git checkout into your Django app.

In your models, you've specified that a blog post cannot have a null img attribute, but you're trying to save a blog post without specifying img

it's because it's wrapping all of that inside of a <p> tag, so then the <br>, <img> etc aren't being rendered (since they are inside of a <p>).

deleted-user-2014455 | 167 posts | Feb. 1, 2017, 3:49 a.m. | permalink

You're dumping text into the page with your post.body tag and DJango is escaping it because just dumping unescaped text into your page can be a major security problem. The docs are here

Actually two small cosmetic questions:

all pictures are adjusted to left but I cannot find anywhere in code any value responsible for that
how to add" read more" button but this should be set by me when I edit post, so I cannot use sth like truncatechars as this will defined for all post, I would like to something for each post indywidually

Hi there, at this point we're getting outside the realm of "pythonanywhere support" and into "help programming django", which is outside our remit I'm afraid. You might be able to get some help on the django forums, or via codementor?
