Django static won't load

This is driving me crazy for the last 2 hours. Please help. Django 1.10

settings.py:

 STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')

 STATICFILES_DIRS = []

 STATIC_URL = '/static/'

project_folder/static/images/abc.png is working through "{ static 'images/abc.png' }"

I've just added project_folder/static/images/def.png but it DOES NOT work through "{ static 'images/def.png' }"

Both were tested in the same file so {% load static %} was always there.

I had also tried to copy abc.png to def.png just in case my original def.png was bad. But it's still not working.

I hope what I said make sense. Thank you for your help

`STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')]` ? – devxplorer Oct 20 '16 at 18:36
did you run `python manage.py collectstatic` after adding def.png ? – Termi Oct 20 '16 at 18:38
STATICFILES_DIRS setting should not contain the STATIC_ROOT – H Bui Oct 20 '16 at 18:40
I'm working on local, Debug=True so I haven't ran collectstatic. But I've just tried it now and it didn't work. – H Bui Oct 20 '16 at 18:43
This [answer](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12161271/can-i-make-staticfiles-dir-same-as-static-root-in-django-1-3) solved the issue for me. – H Bui Oct 20 '16 at 18:54
