title: flask-bootstrap bootstrap_find_resource
body: <p>looking to specify the themed css for <code>bootstrap</code>. can't get <code>bootstrap_find_resource</code> to look to my locally placed css files. Seems to continue to pull from the <code>/site-packages/flask_bootstrap</code> location.</p>
  
  <p>the current default for <code>bootstrap</code> css is pointing here</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;link href="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and this is the macro generating the url</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;link href="{{bootstrap_find_resource('css/bootstrap.css', cdn='bootstrap')}}" rel="stylesheet"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>bootstrap_find_resource code pointed me to the <code>BOOTSTRAP_SERVE_LOCAL</code> config.  setting it to true gave me a local endpoint. which created the local endpoint</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;link href="/static/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css?bootstrap=3.3.5.7" rel="stylesheet"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>so I placed the bootstrap css in this local app static folder /static/bootstrap/css/.  and i verified that flask's <code>app.static_folder</code> is actually mapped to where I put the new files. still pulling from site packages and ignores my local static files.</p>
