Ideabox Installation: I've tried to install ideabox o Microsoft Windows with python 3.6 and django 1.11. So, I'm very disappointed after fail trying to install on Windows and on Ubuntu 17. Is there any guide to install ideabox? Could anybody help me? Thanks

Hello there! I'm not an expert on this but based on the docs this application was designed for Django 1.5 which did not have support for Python 3 reliably (and I'm definitely not sure about dependency support for Python 3).

Django 1.5 is listed in the requirements.txt - because of this I wouldn't expect the application to behave on the latest version of Django / Python that you list. Maybe try it on Python 2.x and an older version of Django if possible and see if that resolves whatever issues you may be experiencing?

Thanks @sephcoster.

I will install following your recommendation and I will report the results.

Thanks again
