Make folder "staticfiles" in root of your project where settings.py exists

In staticfiles you can go this way..

• css
• js
• images

In settings.py

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR,'static')
STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATICFILES_DIRS = (
                os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR,'staticfiles'), # if your static files folder is named "staticfiles"
)
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
                os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR,'template'), # if your static files folder is named "template"
)

In base.html

In other template files in which you include base.html

{% extends "base.html" %}
{% load static %}
