  I am getting this message when I try and add a link to an external post in my page “You’re seeing this error because you have DEBUG = True in your Django settings file. Change that to False, and Django will display a standard 404 page.” How do I change this?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  This seems like a strange error and possibly not related to your blog. Can you link me to a page where you are seeing the issue?

  Thanks,
  Andy

  Hey Andy,

  If you scroll down you will see a link to St. John’s Bakery if you click on that the error pops up in a new window.

  Thanks

  Ah, thanks. On that link you have an extra closing bracket “)”, if you edit the post and change the link to remove that bracket it should work just fine.
