I’m learning Django following onemonth.com.
I tried to link using {% static (URLs) %} to load static files but it doesn’t load. Could someone help me? I put my codes in files below.

settings.py(only changed parts)

import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
MAIN_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

DEBUG = True

ALLOWED_HOSTS = []
INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'core',
)

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.SessionAuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
)

ROOT_URLCONF = 'coffeedapp.urls'    
TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [os.path.join(MAIN_DIR, 'templates')],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                'django.template.context_processors.debug',
                'django.template.context_processors.request',
                'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
                'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
            ],
        },
    },
]

WSGI_APPLICATION = 'coffeedapp.wsgi.application'

import dj_database_url
DATABASES['default'] =  dj_database_url.config()

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_DIRS= (
    os.path.join(MAIN_DIR,'static'),
)

views.py

from django.shortcuts import render
from django.views.generic import TemplateView
class LandingView(TemplateView):
    template_name = 'base/index.html'

core/urls.py

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
from django.contrib import admin
import core.views as coreviews

urlpatterns = patterns('',
                       url(r'^$', coreviews.LandingView.as_view()),
                       )

coffeedapp/urls.py

from django.conf.urls import patterns,include, url
from django.contrib import admin

urlpatterns = patterns('',
                       url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
                       (r'', include('core.urls')),
                       )

index.html (partial)

In settings.py, instead of STATIC_DIRS, you should use:
```
STATICFILES_DIRS= (
    os.path.join(MAIN_DIR,'static'),
)
```

os.path.dirname(__file__) points to the path where the setting.py is. For my directory structure:
```
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '../static/').replace('\','/'),
)
```
directory structure:
```
porject
|--app
    |--settings.py
|--static
```
