To make Django messages look nice in your bootstrap 3 template you need two things:
Create a custom template tag to define css name for a message:
@register.assignment_tag
def get_bootstrap_alert_msg_css_name(tags):
return "danger" if tags == "error" else tags
Add this snippet to your base.html
:
{% if messages %}
<ul class="list-unstyled messages">
{% for message in messages %} {% get_bootstrap_alert_msg_css_name message.tags
as alert_tag %}
<li class="alert alert-{{ alert_tag }}">{{ message }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endif %}
