Css file not loading on Python Anywhere

Question

I have recently begun making a Django project on PythonAnyhwere.

I have followed the entire tutorial provided by Django for including static files on the project. I have observed the programs work fine on a site with http, but does not work on a site with https.

What could be the reasons and how can I overcome this problem?

Edit : The site is working now, apparently, but I would still like an explanation as to why it WAS working differently, if anyone can provide.

Answer 1

to load your CSS files (or totally static files), you need to follow the steps below:

1- inside settings.py

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATIC_ROOT=os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'static')

MEDIA_ROOT=os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'media')

MEDIA_URL='/media/'

2-collect static files using bash console

python manage.py collectstatic

3-you need to enter the Static files directory inside the web tab
