Tango with Django Chapter 7 (Add_page)

[Amimo Benja]

Hey all,

Am currently practicing using this tutorial 
http://www.tangowithdjango.com/book/chapters/forms.html, but I'm constantly 
getting this error "The current URL, rango/category//add_page/, didn't 
match any of these." every time I click on the Add a 
Page link 
in the Category.html. I don't know how to solve it. Any help? Thanks.

Here are my 
1. Views.py http://pastebin.mozilla.org/3595121
2. rango/urls.py http://pastebin.mozilla.org/3595145
3. add_page.html http://pastebin.mozilla.org/3595156
4. category.html http://pastebin.mozilla.org/3595158

it?

It seems not to be working. It raises an error that Invalid block tag:

Re: Tango with Django Chapter 7 (Add_page)

Thanks Lee, it worked. The problem was I had not passed category_name_url 
from my view function to the category template. The moment I passed it, it 
worked without any problem. Thanks a lot Man. At least I can proceed. 
Phee...w!!! Thanks again.

Re: Tango with Django Chapter 7 (Add_page)

[Amimo Benja]

Hi Lee,

I have been continuing with the django tutorials and at the moment I am on 
chapter 10 dealing with cookies.

On the exercises when a user logs in and clicks the about page link, mine 
just shows he visited the site 1 time no matter how many times he clicks on 
the about page. Is it supposed to be so or am I missing something?

Prototype of an Online Voting System (I need some constructive criticism here)

[Amimo Benja]

simple_prototype_of_online_voting_system

I am new to Django/Python. After a few tutorial, I have tried to develop 
this app.

However, I need some constructive criticism as the app needs to be made 
better and improved.

Please view it and highlight the problem/issues cause I know it has a lot 
of issues and then recommend 
the necessary changes and how to implement those changes. 

Access the app at http://amimobenja.pythonanywhere.com/voting_system/

The code can be accessed at

Thanks.

I will gladly appreciate

Re: Prototype of an Online Voting System (I need some constructive criticism here)

[Amimo Benja]

Amirouche, the recommendations are actually great.

I new to Django and Python, so how to implement them exactly as you
recommend to me is a little bit difficult.

Can you please fork the repository and update the code so that I can view
how you have implement the changes, if that is fine with you...
