Markdown works well in local development but not in deployment. I get the ff error in deployment:

markdown_extras' is not a registered tag library. Must be one of: admin_list admin_modify admin_urls cache i18n l10n log static tz

My django app is deployed on aws and im using nginx .Your help is much appriciated

This is most certainly a user error, but unfortunately, you have not provided enough information for anyone to help.

markdown_extras' is not a registered tag library.

This makes me think you've somehow configured something wrong in your app, which may not even be Python Markdown related.

In order for someone to be able to help, please provide a minimal, reproducible example so that we can get some idea of what the real question really is.

This is my code both in local server and deployment server i have installed markdown using pip install and it appears under pip list in in both development and deployment.

html file :

{% extends "quiz/layout.html" %}

{% load markdown_extras %}

{% block body %}
<h1>{{ post.title }}</h1>
<p>By {{ post.author.username }} on {{ post.created_at }}</p>
{% if post.image %}
<img src="{{ post.image.url }}" alt="{{ post.title }}">
{% endif %}
<div>{{ post.content|convert_markdown|safe }}</div> 
<a href="{% url 'post_list' %}">Back to Blog</a>
{% endblock %}

markdown_extras.py file in the templatestags folder( I have also created en empty init.py file in this folder . )

import markdown

from django import template
from django.template.defaultfilters import stringfilter
from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe

register = template.Library()

@register.filter
@stringfilter
def convert_markdown(value):
    return markdown.markdown(value, extensions=['markdown.extensions.fenced_code'])

This the error I get (I have set the debug mode to true just to show this error)

Okay this is what I was looking for. This seems like a question for Django, not Python Markdown.

I thought this was a question about the Markdown "extras" extension, but what you are asking about is how to properly use Django's templating, which is better asked over at the Django repository, not here.

Ok thanks Isaac

Maybe the problem is that you named the folder templatestags, it should be templatetags without the s in the middle.

Thanks I will try your suggestion and rename the folder
