Help, i can't seem to get the import function to high light red when I use "." to specify current directory.

Hi there,

I can't seem to correctly import the views module. Can anyone help?

Cheers,

newspaper/urls.py 
from django.conf.urls import url

from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^$', views.hello_world), 
]

Although the error is stating that you have not imported views, your code for importing is correct. I believe the actual problem is related to line 6 with url. Check the views file again to see if you are using it correctly.
