cant load static files at all and when I inspect on the template in the network it says 404 not found and in the network, it's not picking the correct path even though everything in settings and template seems to be correct! Please help tried whatever I could but the issue isn't resolved tried few solutions given in the past regarding such issue but didn't work.
**settings.py**
STATIC_URL = '/static/' # the path in url
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
STATICFILES_DIRS = [
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static_files"),
]
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media/')
