Overriding TinyMCE Styling after using dangerouslySetInnerHTML
I have a dynamic page with a lot of text in RTL format. TinyMCE cannot display the RTL text properly. It shows up something like this: While I want it to be displayed like this: Searching for a solution, I found out that dangerouslySetInnerHtml will help me get the text clean, however, I cannot get my desired formatting for the dynamic text.

Django, website with changed prefix, how to fix urls globally
I recently deployed my app locally with the help of Apache. I use server name and sufix to get to the content as http://my-server/app. The Problem is every button ignores what the root of my app is. So from my main view at my-server/app I try to redirect to /second_page and it sends me to server/second_page instead of server/app/second_page. Do I have to change every form by hand or is there any way to configure it through settings.py or urls.py? -

How to have a 'Folder' ForeignKey sorted by folders and subfolders
I have models for scripts and folders, with the scripts inside the folders. When registering a new script (or modifying an existing one) in the Django Admin page, the folders are not represented as folders and subfolders, but rather all at the same time under the form of a list, without anything to distinguish which one is a parent or a child of another one in the list. What I want is to have them clearly ordered, with subfolders underneath their parent (Or atleast display the path from the root folder instead of just the name of the folder to be able to tell where they are if what I want is not possible). I hope I'm clear, but to try explaining differently, have like a ChoiceField with the following choices : FOLDER_CHOICE= [ ('Folder1', ( ('folder1-1', 'Folder1-1'), ('folder1-2', 'Folder1-2'), ) ), ('Folder2', ( ('folder2-1', 'Folder2-1'), ('folder2-2', 'Folder2-2'), ) ) ,... ] The code of the models.py class : import importlib.util import os import shutil import types from django.db import models from django.urls import reverse from django.utils.html import format_html class Folder(models.Model): folder_name = models.CharField(max_length=200, unique=True) parent_folder = models.FilePathField(path=r'media/', allow_files=False, allow_folders=True, recursive=True) def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(Folder, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) self.initial_folder_name = … -
Delete folder or directory using API (django)
I have written down a Python script to delete or remove a folder from file directory. The code is below: import os import sys import shutil base_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) path = 'media/user110' try: path = os.path.join(base_dir, path) shutil.rmtree(path) print("Deleted: " + path) except OSError as e: print("Error: %s - %s." % (e.filename, e.strerror)) This worked. But it's not working in API using Django. If I print path it shows '/home/Desktop/my_project/media/user110/ But when I want to do this in API using Django, using same code, and print path I got /media/user110/ and it throw an Exception saying this directory doesn't exist Now I want to delete or remove file directory using API. I want the solution. BTW, I am using Linux, and my project will deploy in Linux server. -
