Storing images in Django model and media folder

Question

I have been following this post

However I do not understand this part in which the answer states

In url.py

from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.conf import settings
urlpatterns = [....
]
+ static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

Now

In my project if I add

+ static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

after my

 urlpatterns = [....
    ]

I get the error

    + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
TypeError: bad operand type for unary +: 'list'

any suggestions on how i can fix this ?

Answer 1

urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
