Courses Plus Student 3,456 PointsArticle Detail View, Question 1 of 3.
when I enter this code for the first challenge:
from .models import Step
def article_detail(request, pk): step = get_object_or_404(Step, id=pk, pk=step_pk) return render(request, 'articles/article_detail.html', {'step': step})
I get "Bummer! Did you create the 'article_detail view?" Well, yeah...that's what I was trying t do...
Any help? Thanks.
from django.shortcuts import render
from .models import Article, Writer
from .models import Step
def article_list(request):
articles = Article.objects.all()
return render(request, 'articles/article_list.html', {'articles': articles})
def writer_detail(request, pk):
writer = Writer.objects.get(pk=pk)
return render(request, 'articles/writer_detail.html', {'writer': writer})
def article_detail(request, pk):
step = get_object_or_404(Step, id=pk, pk=step_pk)
return render(request, 'articles/article_detail.html', {'step': step})
from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
url(r'writer/(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.writer_detail),
url(r'', views.article_list),
]

Treehouse TeacherI think it might be your step import and use of that that's throwing off the challenge. I think you're going above and beyond what they're expecting. Take a look at my solution for step 1.
def article_detail(request, pk):
article = Article.objects.get(pk=pk)
return render(request, 'articles/article_detail.html',{'article': article})
Note: I did not import Step either.

Courses Plus Student 3,456 PointsOK...I just said I should be more patient. But I think I must be missing something really basic for the 3rd question:
def article_detail(request, pk): article = Article.objects.get(pk=pk) article = get_object_or_404(Article, pk=pk) return render(request, 'articles/article_detail.html',{'article': article})
The message says to be sure that bad pk's are returning 404's Seems like this is how he did it in the video...
Thanks again.

Treehouse TeacherHonestly? I have no idea LOL. I can't make it past it again either. I can do step one and 2 but fail on step 3. I'd suggest posting a whole new question and let someone with more points/experience than I have answer that one :)

Courses Plus Student 3,456 PointsThanks...I figured it out right after I posted. Shouldn't be so impatient! Now I'm "stuck" on step 3.
Thanks again for responding so quickly.
