Unexplained error again.

Again, no identification of the place where there's error. Just a general message: "Try again".

Help appreciated.

Looks like you understand the task and most of the syntax-- good work. Be careful with case, url_for is all in lower case. Also, the <a> tag must have its text in between the opening and closing tag. <a href="#">Your Text</a>

Good luck with your Python journey!

Spoilers below...

Part 1 just asks for links

<nav>
  <a href="{{ url_for('logout') }}">Sign Out</a>
  <a href="{{ url_for('login') }}">Sign In</a>
  <a href="{{ url_for('register') }}">Sign Up</a>
</nav>

Then, part 2

<nav>
  {% if current_user.is_authenticated() %}
  <a href="{{ url_for('logout') }}">Sign Out</a>
  {% else %}
  <a href="{{ url_for('login') }}">Sign In</a>
  <a href="{{ url_for('register') }}">Sign Up</a>
  {% endif %}
</nav>
