I can not figure out what's wrong with my url. I get the message make sure the template is used which doesn't make sense to me, as i already passed the question before.
from django.shortcuts import render
from .models import Article, Writer
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):
article = Article.objects.get(pk=pk)
return render(request, 'articles/article_detail.html', {'article': article})
from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views
urlpatterns = [
url(r'writer/(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.writer_detail),
url(r'', views.article_list),
url(r'article/(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.article_detail),
]

Courses Plus Student 1,105 Pointsgot stuck yesterday just like you, after searching for help, find out the key lies in the order of urlpatterns:
urlpatterns = [ url(r'writer/(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.writer_detail), url(r'article/(?P<pk>\d+)/$', views.article_detail), url(r'', views.article_list), ]
r'' will match anything, so views.article_detail will never work
