AskBot v0.10.2: How to update footer.html ...

Hello Friends:

I'm trying AskBot v0.10.2.

Just FYI that I saw this solution from a long while ago, but maybe it no longer works:

  • https://askbot.org/en/question/2590/can-i-edit-the-footer/ (again just FYI)

If you activate the OpenStack theme/skin, the footer is located here (after running python manage.py collectstatic):

${ASKBOT_HOME}/static/openstack/templates/widgets/footer.html
  1. When I edit that file, it doesn't change on the site no matter what I do. I have tried clearing caches everywhere, too. (By the way, I'm using nginx and uWSGI).
  2. Next, I tried using the custom footer LIVESETTINGS option, and pasting in a trivially edited version of that same footer.html file, and again absolutely nothing changes on the site.

(Note: I'm open to suggestions on clearing out nginx, uWSGI and askbot's caches, in case I did something incorrectly).

What am I missing on how to change the footer? It refuses to update.

Thank you! =:)
