Today we will be deploying a Django Web App using Cpanel (Shared Hosting). I believe this should work on most hosting service providers that support CPanel, In my case I am using NameCheap Hosting.Here are the steps:

1. Collect all static files in one place and replace static folder

python manage.py findstatic admin/js/core.js

In settings.py

STATIC_ROOT = "/static/"

python manage.py collectstatic

Copy static folder and replace.

Main

Mysite

Static

Templates

Must be on root

3. Setup python app (Software section of namecheap)

4. Give project name as url

5. Copy the link and open terminal then paste
6. Pip install Django
7. Pip install --upgrade pip
8. pip install pillow==8.0.0
9. pip install django-ckeditor
10. pip install django-widget-tweaks
11. Pip list
12. In root edit passenger_wsgi.py and type (from  mysite.wsgi import application)

from mysite.wsgi import application

13. Run project it show url allowed host error
14. In setting.py update

DEBUG = False

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['python.kodewhiz.com', 'www.python.kodewhiz.com']
