Fixing the problem where PyCharm is not recognizing your custom import file

This happens when you have your project organized in a folder structure, and you are not working at the top level. It is an easy fix, if you know what to fix.

As of Pycharm in 2024 I solved the issue by MARKING the folder as a SOURCE folder (same setting page as in video), it then displayed as blue in project files
