[MattressBros]

for everyone that saying he can't follow the tutorial anymore go and learn html/javascript/bootstrap and come back and you will understand every thing that is going on :)

Update 2021:

You can use ImageField instead of FileField in models.
All other code remains the same.

Just install pillow additionally before making migrations by using terminal command:
"python -m pip install pillow".

Hope this helps!

For those who can't see the image you should follow the next steps:
1) Erase all your previous Albums (From admin page or in the index.html)
2) In website > urls.py, add:
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL,
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL,
3) I just edit the detail.html file and add just:
<img src="{{ album.album_logo.url }}" class="img-responsive"/>
4) Finally, restart your server and load a new Album data.

I hope it works for you!

For those having a problem with loading files or with request.FILES['whatevername'] add to settings.py -> TEMPLATES -> 'context_processors:' [....]

Man I love you, so many cool instructions and your way of expressing your thoughts is also amazing, keep going man, you're inspiring a lot of guys like me

I was facing the problem of uploading the image so finally i solved the problem.
i forgot to write below line at submit button form.
enctype="multipart/form-data"

[tundoan]

I read the book, from the django project.com and I prefer your tutorials

[sanskarjain]

For those whose images are not loading, make sure that the changes made in urls.py are in website/urls.py not in music/urls.py
Spent an hour figuring out...

Me: Let's upload some files through Django.
Bucky: So I walked outside and my water spigot was on!

[terangaplus]

(6:47) - You're working in development mode but in production mode, how can we proceed ???

[treats]

XD Your water running is awesome! Great tutorial btw.

Guys if even after you have the save code your page does not load, do this "To access the MEDIA_URL in template you must add to your context_processeors inside the TEMPLATES config."

[IshwarKumarishwaraju]

please help . u have not explained the detail page and index page.. i was following the video from 1st.. but after 29 everything i m lost .. please please help me.. please give me the link of the index page and detail page

[marekgorski]

Why have you used FileField, not ImageField?

[johnangelocuesta]

Oh right! Now I see what bucky do to his index.html! bwahahha took alot of pauses but I'm almost done haha

[ziyadmoustafa]

use this in your urls.py file instead:

if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += [ url(r'^media/(?P<path>.*)$', serve, { 'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT, }), ]

and instead of importing "from django.conf.urls.static import static", do "import serve", like this:

from django.conf.urls.static import serve

[HarryTeran]

*BUCKYYYY* please explain or upload the code bootstrap until video 29, cause in GitHub is the final one, we need only from cap 29, you changed (detail.html, index.html), THANKS! -.-!

[raghuvamshakokkula]

8:59 I wish I could debug my errors that fast!

[revoiceful]

When the picture is not loading:
-> change {{ album.album_logo.url }} in index.html && detail.html
