Courses Plus Student 778 Pointsno worries on it again.....what wasn't mentioned in this lesson is that laravel use Plural naming for table so even when you use a singular naming it automatically adds a "S" in your table name so in order to solve this its either you use a Plural naming convention for your table or you Over-write the Plural table naming in larval

31,709 PointsCould you please post the TodoList model code. I'm guessing you need to change the model's table property to contact.
protected $table = 'contacts';
By convention, Laravel models look for a plural from of there models name. I.e The User model will look in the "users" table. You can override that by telling the model to use a specific table.
