ACCEPTED ANSWER

Score 381

If you have any of the following tags in your template:

{% load staticfiles %}
{% load static from staticfiles %}
{% load admin_static %}

Then replace it with:

{% load static %}

You have to make this change because {% load staticfiles %} and {% load admin_static %} were deprecated in Django 2.1, and removed in Django 3.0.

ANSWER 2

Score 20

Try {% load static %} instead of {% load staticfiles %}
If effect of CSS or any other files doesn't reflect in your template then also write following lines in the end of your settings.py file

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')]
VENV_PATH = os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR)
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(VENV_PATH, 'static_root')
