I have a webpage which will show the logo of an music album. For that I've added a database field named album_ logo and add the path name of the images folder "C:\Python Projects\Test_App\website\music\static\music\Image" in database. But in the HTML page album_logo is not rendering.

Here is the attached code snippet. <body> {% load static %} <img src = "{{album.album_logo}}"> <h1>{{album.album_title}}</h1> <h3>{{album.artist}} - {{album.genre}}</h3> </body>

Create your models here.

class Album(models.Model): album_title = models.CharField(max_length=250) artist = models.CharField(max_length=250) genre = models.CharField(max_length=100) album_logo = models.CharField(max_length=500) def __str__(self): return self.album_title + '-' + self.artist

Example: For the first album I've added the image path in database as - "C:\Python Projects\Test_App\website\music\static\music\Image\The_Division_Bell.jpg"

album_logo should be ImageField since it is a image. Also you need to do pip install pillow to upload the images.

In your models 

....................... album_logo = models.ImageField(upload_to='alubm_logo')

and in your project's urls.py you need to provide the static url like this (Note:this is only for development)

project/urls.py

urlpatterns=[....... ................ ] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

settings.py

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

Thanks for assistance. I've a few more things to ask, I've music app inside the website. Where shall I add the MEDIA_URL and MEDIA_ROOT? What will be the values of these? I.e [MEDIA_URL = static\music\Image]
in your settings.py it should be by default.If not you can add it.see my answer.
