Hello members, 

Has anyone ever used Namecheap shared hosting to serve static and media files? Apparently nginx can't be used, i only have WhiteNoise which serves static files only.

kindly  share you've done it before.. thanks in advance

Never done it before but it looks like Namecheap uses Apache for shared
hosting:

The options for running Django in a shared hosting environment are usually fcgi or cgi. Are either of those options available?
