Django Admin CSS missing

Question

I\'ve been messing around with the new collectstatic command and have got it working for my normal pages. That is to say, I am able to load my css at this locat

Answer 1

I'm using Django 1.4.3

What did NOT work for me: No matter how much I edited ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX in settings.py I noticed no change in the HTML generated for the Django Admin pages. It always says /media/admin/base.css when I view the source.

What DID work for me. Copied the 'admin' folder from /django/contrib/admin/static/ and pasted it into my projects 'media' folder

Now it works great.
