[Django] css file is not applying to the page

SheeppOSU · May-09-2020, 01:43 AM

I have a link to a css file in my html but it's not applying to the site. There are no errors and when I go to inspect -> sources the css file is not there, so I see the problem, but I don't see the solution. Thanks in advance for any help.
This is the base html file that loads in the css.

{% load static %}

<link rel="'stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{% static 'polls/styles.css' %}">
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
.
.
.

This is the css file in case you want to see it

li a {
    color: green;
}

body {
    
}

.question-display {
    border-color: black;
    border-width: 5px;
    position: center;
}

.question-link {
    
}
.
.
.

This is the line of code I have in settings STATIC_URL = '/static/'.
Then I have 'django.contrib.staticfiles' under INSTALLED_APPS in settings.

If your on an apache2 web server, you may need to setup an alias for the static folder.
Or you may need to do the collect static command. I don't remember the command.
Here is how mine is setup. The static folder resides in the django root folder.
I did not see tags for and code other than python.

{% load static %}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" dir="ltr">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
        <title>{% block title %}{% endblock title %}</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-Vkoo8x4CGsO3+Hhxv8T/Q5PaXtkKtu6ug5TOeNV6gBiFeWPGFN9MuhOf23Q9Ifjh" crossorigin="anonymous">
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/homepages/home.css' %}">
        <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Peralta&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'css/all.css' %}">
    </head>
