Hi Chris, Thanks very much for responding personally. I think what was confusing me is I've ended up with two projects in my project. In other words, first I created a project with django-admin.py, then I copied clonesatchmo.py into there and ran it.
But clonesatchmo.py creates another whole project structure in the 'store/' directory. I was thinking 'store/' was an app within my project at first since that was what I was expecting. So I have '/settings.py' and '/store/settings.py' ...I guess really I just want to copy everything out of '/store' and into the root of my project. I should have just used clonesatchmo.py I guess, and not created a project first. It all makes sense now!
