    <p><strong>Problem</strong>: all urls go to my landing page, including a basic '/about' and '/contact'</p> <p><strong>Example</strong>: Url www.mydomain.com works perfectly (loads css, etc), but www.mydomain.com/about goes to www.mydomain.com even though it says www.mydomain.com/about in address bar.</p> <p><strong>Question</strong>: How do I configure nginx to simply pass everything through to django?</p> <p>I'm deploying a website I've written locally using django to an EC2 instance. I am able to access my default landing page, but I can't access any other page. I have a basic site with /about, /contact mappings, but when I go to them I simply am redirected to my landing page. I'm pretty sure that this has something to do with my nginx config, but after looking through basic nginx tutorials I don't think I'm grasping what I'm missing.</p> <p>Here is my conf file for nginx...</p> <pre><code>server { listen 80; server_name mydomain.com; access_log /var/log/nginx/sample_project.access.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/sample_project.error.log; # https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/static-files/#serving-static-files-in-production location /static/ { # STATIC_URL alias /home/ubuntu/path/to/static/; # STATIC_ROOT expires 30d; } location /media/ { # MEDIA_URL alias /home/ubuntu/path/to/static/; # MEDIA_ROOT expires 30d; } # I have also tried 'location ~* ^(.*?)$' and it had the same effect location / { include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:8080; } } </code></pre> <p>As I read through nginx tutorials/etc, I can appreciate that it can do a lot, but I would prefer to handle all incoming urls through django.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
