'qr_tags' is not a valid tag library: Template library qr_tags not found

[aziminia]

I installed with
pip install django-qrcode

added 'qrcode' to 'INSTALLED_APPS' in my settings.py

when I try to load {% load qr tags %}, I get the following error:

'qr_tags' is not a valid tag library: Template library qr_tags not found, tried django.templatetags.qr_tags,django.contrib.staticfiles.templatetags.qr_tags,django.contrib.admin.templatetags.qr_tags

Note: I using python 2.7 and django 1.4.22

Thanks

Can't reproduce

Found the solution...but not the reason why...

Hello.
I ran into the same issue. I am reusing some code from another project I had which was using Django 1.96 and Python 3.4.3 and everything was working great. When I tried the same code in Django 1.10 and Python 3.5.2 I got django.template.exceptions.TemplateSyntaxError: 'qr_tags' is not a registered tag library..

So, I checked the files in '/home/(my_name)/.virtualenvs/(my_virtualenv)/lib/python3.5/site-packages/qrcode/' , and compared the files to my other project. The folders "templates", and "templatetages" were missing. I copied them from the other project and put them into the new project's qrcode folder and its works.

I used Pip install qrcode to install the app. Not sure why it didn't install those critical folders.

Hope that helps

Great app by the way.
