Django Basics - Challenge Task 2 of 3 - DateTimeField

I am confused as to what I am missing in regards to this question. I have created another attribute, publish_date, with a DateTimeField with no arguments. Can someone please advise what step I am missing.

Thanks!

articles/models.py
from django.db import models


# Create your models here

class Article(models.Model): 
    headline = models.CharField(max_length=255) 
    publish_date = models.DateTimeField()

Here is the actual task instructions: Now add another field to the Article model named publish_date. It should be a DateTimeField and have no arguments.

Your code looks fine to me (pretty much identical to mine)-- I redid the challenge and paste what passed for me.

from django.db import models

# Create your models here
class Article(models.Model):
    headline = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    publish_date = models.DateTimeField()
    content = models.TextField()

It looks like the code in the challenge is double tabbed. Fixing that resolved the issue for me.
