Description

**Describe the bug**

While using WhiteNoise in a django app, I get a value error on profile page that breaks my site.

`ValueError: The file 'js/affix.js' could not be found with .`

`profile_detail.html` has scripts that source from missing java-script files

```
{% block profile_javascript_libs %}
{{ block.super }}


{% endblock %}
```

Research direction

Start with profile_detail.html and inspect the references to js/affix.js and js/profiles.js that trigger the WhiteNoise static-file error. Determine why those files are missing or incorrectly referenced, then verify that the profile page loads without the missing-files ValueError.
