Can't Get ListView to display result of SQL Query onto Custom Template

[Malik Rumi]

Note- This question was originally posted on SO before I completely understood what my issue was. However, since editing it to reflect the true state of affairs, the silence over there has been deafening. I only mention that because some people don't like it when similar questions are posted to more than one forum by the same person, so now you know why I'm doing it. Thanks for understanding.

I can't get my subclass of ListView to display my content on my own template, even though it will display on the default code_list.html. My template does come up, but the queryset simply isn't there. I tried switching template names, but that didn't work. I've tried a wide variety of tweaks to context, but none of them worked. I tested my queryset in the shell, and it worked fine. Debug toolbar says my query executed. So it just seems to be getting it onto my template.

This shows a list of all my Code objects

class CodeListViewAll(ListView):

model = Code

but if I modify it in even the slightest way, it does not

class CodeListViewAll(ListView):

model = Code
template_name='statute.html'

I wrote a functional view to accomplish the same goal, but I got the same result with my statute.html – no data

statute.html

{% block content %}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-1">
    </div>
        <div class="col-md-10">
{% for i in codelist %} can you see this? < -- Yes, "can you see this?" displays
<li>{{ codelist.arrow }}</li>
{% endfor %}
        </div>
    <div class="col-md-1">
</div>
</div>
{% endblock content %}

Statute extends base, but since the inheritance seems to be working everywhere else on this template, I assume that is not an issue.

<li>{{ codelist.arrow }}</li>

shouldn't you be using the for variable? something like

<li>{{ i.arrow }}</li>

I have been struggling with this all week. I posted to SO and got a lot of flack and downvoted - but no help. And FOUR MINUTES after I posted, you zeroed in on the problem. Yes, now my code displays on my own template. And you gave me no snark in the process. A true and helpful gentleman. Thank you, thank you, thank you. The only greater thing you could have done would be to give me the last 4 days back. 

p.s. - Nice hat!
