Django-CMS with Grappelli messed up the layout for admin cms pages

Question

I just installed grappelli into a Django-CMS site by following the standard routine - pip install django-grappelli, add it to INSTALLED_APPS, add in the url pattern, then syncdb and collectstatic. However, although all the other pages in the admin area look great with the new "theme", the layout for CMS Pages settings in Django-CMS (the drag 'n drop interface) are all messed up.

Why is that, and is there a fix for this, yet?

Thanks.

EDIT: Thanks, Brandon for your reply. Is there a way to completely uninstall grappelli without causing any problems? Right now, the default admin's javascripts are messed up after I got rid of grappelli from INSTALLED_APPS. In particular, these are from the console:

Uncaught ReferenceError: grp is not defined actions.js:134
Uncaught ReferenceError: django is not defined admincompat.js:1
Uncaught ReferenceError: django is not defined collapse.js:24
Uncaught ReferenceError: django is not defined :8000/admin/cms/page/2/:942

Your edit has made this into a completely different question (to which the answer is probably "delete your `STATIC_ROOT` directory and run `collectstatic` again). Perhaps just delete this question and re-ask any parts of it that are still outstanding? — supervacuo, Aug 19 '12 at 17:59
@supervacuo, this is really strange. I didn't do the collectstatic in the first place because I am using the django microserver, in a development localhost machine. I uninstall grappelli and left everything as it was (I used github to go to my master version) and still got the error. I actually had to create another virtualenvironment and reinstall all the packages again with pip. — toto_tico, Mar 14 '14 at 08:06

Here's my solution - it involves setting up a subdomain to server a version of your site with grappelli removed and serving static media from a different directory: https://stackoverflow.com/a/12900801/473285

Grappelli also conflicts with the stock Django admin. Another solution that work is, If you have removed Grappelli from INSTALLED_APPS also remove its url configurations too..

from url configuration remove this line.

path('grappelli/', include('grappelli.urls'))
