Your regular expression is bogus. Presumably (given the error messages I've chopped) that URL is in a urlconf that has a prefix of "/plugin/", so ignore what Tom Lockhart said about that. Your regexp is: r'^(?P<pluginTitle>\D+)/$' This says "From the beginning of the string, capture a grouping of 1 or more characters from the class '\D' as the parameter 'pluginTitle', followed by a '/' character, followed by the end of the string. The main problem is that there is no such character class '\D'. There is '\d', it means the digits 0-9, but you are trying to match the word 'title'. Work out what are valid characters for your title and write the regular expression accordingly.
