Settings.py

In your 'settings.py' file you will need to add the following:

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')

Urls.py

Now in your 'urls.py' we need to add to your URL Patterns, so after the 'urlpatterns' add the following line:

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

Your Model

If you have already followed the tutorials on django, you would have created a model (probably for products). We now need to edit this model to add an 'ImageField' for the product.

product_pic = models.ImageField(upload_to = 'media/', default = 'media/None/no-img.jpg')

The parameters above will set the location and also a default image to use if no image is uploaded.
