********************************************************************** Add "filer" to your project's INSTALLED_APPS setting and run syncdb (or migrate if you're using South). You might consider using django-filer with the django CMS plugin and its components instead of cms.plugins.file, cms.plugins.picture, cms.plugins.teaser and cms.plugins.video core plugins. In this case you should not add them to INSTALLED_APPS but add those instead: 'filer' 'cmsplugin_filer_file' 'cmsplugin_filer_folder' 'cmsplugin_filer_image' 'cmsplugin_filer_teaser' 'cmsplugin_filer_video' (Note that this also requires the installation of cmsplugin-filer.) **********************************************************************
