Hello, I was told to do this as of currently:
- Install setup tools http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/0.6c11<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools/0.6c11&usg=AFQjCNFAba56URVo6p2trkvnEAvNXmEVKA> - Go to the command line (cmd.exe) and type - easy_install django - easy_install ipython (not needed by django, but very useful, as you will see when you come to running "python manage.py shell" That's all! I was trying to do another method but for now I think this is fine? I am honestly just doing my best to understand all the language of python...
