Django — Can’t get static CSS files to load

by

Read this carefully:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/staticfiles/

Is django.contrib.staticfiles in your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py?

Is DEBUG=False? If so, you need to call runserver with the --insecure parameter:

python manage.py runserver --insecure

collectstatic has no bearing on serving files via the development server. It is for collecting the static files in one location STATIC_ROOT for your web server to find them. In fact, running collectstatic with your STATIC_ROOT set to a path in STATICFILES_DIRS is a bad idea. You should double-check to make sure your CSS files even exist now.
