I am fairly new to python and Django. I have no problem setting up my own apps by following the tutorial. However, I *always* have problems setting up someone else's apps. I think I've tried installing 5 apps that I've downloaded from code.google.com and elsewhere, and have been unsuccessful every time.
I think my problems in some cases have to do with not understanding how paths work in Django. The directory structure seems to be pretty loose. There don't seem to be conventions about where to put things, at least none that are spelled out... unless there's some documentation I'm missing (quite possible!). I feel like I need some general primer on where to upload things. For example, I've been putting my own apps in a directory called myproject. I understand that I can call that directory whatever I want as long as I referenced it the right way in the py files. But I would think that I would also put other downloaded apps in that same directory... but I'm finding (I think) that when I install someone else's app, it needs to go alongside that directory and not inside that directory. I'm hoping that someone reading this will be able to see what the gap is in my knowledge... what is the concept I'm not understanding here?
