Image Not Loading. "TemplateSyntaxerror"

[Daniyal Chawla]

Hi team, 

I have been trying to load an image, but the code below gives me the TemplateSyntaxerror: Could not parse the remainder: ' 'grading_app/thirty.jpg'' from 'static 'grading_app/thirty.jpg'' when I run it:

{% extends "global/Page.html" %}

{% load otree %}

{% block content %}

    <h2>Image Should Go Here</h2>

    <img src=" static 'grading_app/thirty.jpg' "/>

    {% formfields %}

    <p>

    {% next_button %}

    </p>

{% endblock %}

I am sure the folder and image names are correct. I tried getting rid of the quotation marks, replacing that line with <img src=" static 'grading_app/thirty.jpg' "/> . This got rid of the TemplateSyntaxError, but I ended up seeing just the icon below (instead of the actual image):

Thanks in advance!!

Hi Daniyal -

It doesn't look quite like you're using the correct syntax in your template for static files - you're missing the curly brackets needed for a template tag:

https://otree.readthedocs.io/en/latest/misc/advanced.html?highlight=static#static-files

That page is for oTree5 syntax - if you're using otree<5, make sure to switch over to the other version of the documentation.

Thanks,

--Chris

Awesome, thank you so much! It worked. You were right, I was using otree<3 but trying to follow the documentation for the oTree5. Thanks, have a great day!
