Install django CMS on WebFaction

This post was published more than a few years ago (on 2016-06-26) and may contain inaccurate technical information, outmoded thoughts, or cringe takes. Proceed at your own risk.

I’m testing out django CMS for a small personal site, bobtiki.me, and installing it on my WebFaction hosted server. I’m writing down the steps, so you don’t have to! (And by “you,” I mean “future Mark who has forgotten these steps.”)

I’ve had a great experience with WebFaction — they’re both inexpensive and reliable. If you’d like to give them a try, please use this affiliate link to sign up for a free trial, and try installing for yourself.
