Django Crispy Forms not loading proper templatepack

---I am on Ubuntu---

I am trying to setup Django Crispy forms and getting the following error:

Exception Type: TemplateDoesNotExist
Exception Value:    
bootstrap3/layout/buttonholder.html

Settings.py template setup

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {...............

Template-loader postmortem

Django tried loading these templates, in this order:
Using loader django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader:
/home/schachte/Documents/School/cse360/CSE_360_Project/CSE360_Project/ipcms/ipcms/templates/bootstrap3/layout/buttonholder.html (File does not exist)
Using loader django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader:
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/Django-1.8.4-py2.7.egg/django/contrib/admin/templates/bootstrap3/layout/buttonholder.html (File does not exist)
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/Django-1.8.4-py2.7.egg/django/contrib/auth/templates/bootstrap3/layout/buttonholder.html (File does not exist)
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/crispy_forms/templates/bootstrap3/layout/buttonholder.html (File does not exist)

It's pretty obvious that the dir is not there that it's trying to find, but how can I make crispy forms find the correct bootstrap directory?

ButtonHolder isn't part of the Bootstrap template pack. It's documented as not being so.

See this issue for discussion

Best bet is to use FormActions instead

Where do you currently save your static content. The issue seems to be due to Django's inability to find your static content from bootstrap.
