static files blocked due to MIME type (“text/html”) mismatch (X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff).

When I run this project Chapter 8 on localhost on login page I get this type of error on loading static files in browser. Any suggestion how to solve this ?

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace', chapter 2

Hi,
I'm running into some errors when I try to run chapter 2, on Ubuntu 20.10:

File "/home/[user_name]/DjangoProjects/ch03/myproject_virtualenv/src/django-myproject/myproject/apps/search/multilingual_whoosh_backend.py", line 31, in __init__
    lang_code_underscored = translation.get_language().replace("-", "_")

I simply don't know what's going on... Does Django changes so much on each newer release?

MultilingualField and MultilingualCharField

Hi,

Implementing MultilingualField and MultilingualCharField as abstract base classes and using them as mixins for various models is really very useful, thank you very much for this insight in the book. Yet, a small trick would be even more fruitful; right now is there the default language set in the settings is "en", and if there are two languages of application defined as "en" and "de" and if we name the model field as "title", what the method does is producing "title_en" and "title_de" fields into the DB. Instead, if we create only the marginal languages on top of the default one, it will be super helpful in many places throughout the application. What I mean is the following:

LANGUAGE_CODE = "en"

LANGUAGES = [
("en", "English"),
("de", "German"),

Model field name = "title"

-> Create the following fields in the DB: "title" and "title_de". No, "title_en" as it is the name given for the primary language anyway.

Unfortunately I've found the relevant django classes used in the book very complicated and could not do this by myself.
