Issue with the Cleaning Up Code Video in the Todo List project

Hi! I'm trying to complete this video and I keep running into a problem when I try to load the edit items after creating a form. The error I get is as follows:

Missing partial todo_items/form, application/form with {:locale=>[:en], :formats=>[:html], :handlers=>[:erb, :builder, :raw, :ruby, :jbuilder, :coffee]}. Searched in:
  * "/home/treehouse/projects/odot/app/views"
Extracted source (around line #3):

  <h1> <%= @todo_list.title %> - Editing Todo List Item</h1>
  <%= form_for [@todo_list, @todo_item] do |form| %>
    <%= render partial: form %>
  <% end%>

I think it's saying it can't find my form document. The form document path is listed as /Users/Rachel/treehouse/projects/odot/app/views/todo_items/form.html.erb.

The edit document is located at /Users/Rachel/treehouse/projects/odot/app/views/todo_items/edit.html.erb.

I'm really not sure what is going wrong here so If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it.

~ Rachel

Hey Rachel Addleman do you have a "_form.html.erb" template instead? Can you possibly post your code somewhere for us to take a look at?

Jason, I must have missed the "_" before the form when I watched the video the first couple of times. I changed the file name and everything seems to be working now. Thanks for your help! ~ Rachel
