staticfile is not working on other page, but index

Question

I am new to Python on Django. I am making a simple website, but I have a problem with staticfile. I can make it load boostrap and some images on static folder, but it just work correctly when it is in index page, if I click to other page, staticfile is not working anymore. This is my setting.py. pls tell me what I have to do to solve this problem, thanks

This is my setting.py:

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATIC_ROOT = '/static/static_root/'

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates'),
)

STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static"),
    '/static/',
)

views.py:

def index(request):
    list_post_Anh = Blog.objects.filter(category_id=1).order_by('-posted')
    list_post_Uc = Blog.objects.filter(category_id=2).order_by('-posted')
    list_post_Ca = Blog.objects.filter(category_id=3).order_by('-posted')
    list_post_Us = Blog.objects.filter(category_id=4).order_by('-posted')

    context = {'listbloganh':list_post_Anh, 'listbloguc':list_post_Uc, 'listblogca':list_post_Ca, 'listblogus':list_post_Us}
    return render(request, 'index.html', context)

def view_post(request, slug):
    getpost = get_object_or_404(Blog, slug=slug)
    context = {'post':getpost}
    return render(request, 'content.html', context)

urls.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    # Examples:
    # url(r'^$', 'WebDuHoc.views.home', name='home'),
    # url(r'^blog/', include('blog.urls')),

    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
    url(r'^$', 'blog.views.index', name='index'),
    url(r'^baiviet/(?P<slug>[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$', 'blog.views.view_post', name='content'),
) + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
