Re: Referring to the page -- https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/tutorial01/

Hi Dan,

In the shell, did you re-import your Poll model?

(>>> from polls.models import Poll)

I think you might use a previous version of your model (without the changes), and that's why it doesn't recognize it.

I might be wrong though :)

Please let me know if it worked.


Shai.

I've looked at this several times, and I was hoping to get the proverbial set of extra eyes.

I made it almost to the bottom of the page, but while I'm in the Python shell, I type the following:

>>> p = Poll.objects.get(pk=1)

>>> p.was_published_recently()

Here is the contents of the models.py file, which contains the Poll object.

import datetime

from django.utils import timezone

from django.db import models

# Create your models here

from django.db import models

class Poll(models.Model):

    question = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')

    def __unicode__(self):

    return self.question

    def was_published_recently(self):

        return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)

class Choice(models.Model):

    poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)

    choice_text = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    votes = models.IntegerField(default=0)

    def __unicode__(self):

    return self.choice_text

When I type  >>> p.was_published_recently(), I expected to see "True" because the published date satisfies the definition, but instead i'm presented with:

AttributeError: 'Poll' object has no attribute 'was_published_recently'

I'm new at this, so please forgive me if this seems like a silly question to ask.  Looking at the Poll class and the definition that I added, I'm not seeing why the AttributeError would be thrown.

I quadruple-checked for typos, too.  If anyone has an idea, please let me know.
