URL Concatenation Issue

[johnre...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I'm debugging an issue that I'm having with my URL patterns. In my HTML I have an "about me" page that is linking to an about.html file in my templates/blog/ directory. When I load the homepage and click on the "about me" link than "domain.com/about/" loads, which matches the URL pattern in my blog/urls.py file, and the page renders perfectly fine.

However, while on the "about me" page I can't link to any other page because the URL pattern starts to concatenate instead of overwrite (if that makes any sense). For example, if I click on "about me" again than Django tries to load domain.com/about/about and I get an error.

I'm using a python 3.5.2 venv and I'm running Django 2.0.5. I'm new to programming by the way (to include Python, Django, HTML/CSS).

Is your link tag href="./about" or href="/about/"

For this you have provide an app inside your urls and refer to it as home:about where home is the app name and about is the page to be rendered. Also provide namespace in the urls so that the url is linked to the app name.

Kind Regards,

Aditya

In blog/urls.py I have my my homepage mapped to my view.index. Are you saying to also map view.about as well? Also, when you say namespace are you saying to create a dictionary and include my index (blog) and about pages as values? New to Python so I'm trying to still wrap my head around the utilization of python dictionaries.

Please revisit this section in the tutorial. If you haven't done the tutorial at all, please do it before trying a project on your own. You are missing a few fundamentals the tutorial touches upon, such as the basics of URLs and URL paths.
