Django 2.0 Tutorial Template

[Carl Brubaker]

I'm not sure what is wrong, but my template doesn't load correctly. Instead of what I'm supposed to see I get this in my web browser:

<ul>

   

        <li><a href="/polls/1/">What yo?</a></li>

   

    </ul>

Help please!

I copied it from the django tutorial page:

{% if latest_question_list %}
    <ul>
    {% for question in latest_question_list %}
        <li><a href="/polls/{{ question.id }}/">{{ question.question_text }}</a></li>
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
{% else %}
    <p>No polls are available.</p>
{% endif %}

That looks fine. how about your view.py.

What do you mean by not loading correctly?
is it a problem of your urls.py setting?

[Carl Brubaker]

Code for my view.py

from django.shortcuts import render
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.http import Http404
from django.shortcuts import render
from django.template import loader

from .models import Question

# Create your views here.
def index(request):
    latest_question_list = Question.objects.order_by('-pub_date')[:5]
    template = loader.get_template('polls/index.html')
    context = {
        'latest_question_list': latest_question_list,
    }
    return HttpResponse(template.render(context, request))

def detail(request, question_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're looking at question %s." % question_id)

def results(request, question_id):
    response = "You're looking at the results of question %s."
    return HttpResponse(response % question_id)

def vote(request, question_id):
    return HttpResponse("You're voting on question %s." % question_id)



According to the tutorial, I'm supposed to have: "Load the page by pointing your browser at “/polls/”, and you should see a bulleted-list containing the “What’s up” question from Tutorial 2. The link points to the question’s detail page." which I'm not seeing.

[Roberth Solis Martínez]

I think its better if you use:

context = {
        'latest_question_list': latest_question_list,
}

return render(request, 'polls/index.html', context)

[Carl Brubaker]

Tried that one too, as it is further down in the tutorial. Still the same result.

Alright, so I found out the my text editor was saving my files incorrectly. Even though it had ".html" it was displaying the whole text in the web browser, instead of interpreting the the code.
