Chapter 7: Product Detail page does not dynamically link product data (stays static)

[lpandey]

Hi,

I am following along the code on the Chapter. Everything else before the product detail page worked as expected but the product detail page failed to load any data associated with any product (see image) on clicking any product on the product listing page. The click redirects to the product details page, however the appropriate data doesn't load. Any help would be appreciated.

The detail.html file inside "/templates/shop/product" is exactly the same as the code on page [236-237] of the text and the appropriate file on GitHub. Below is the code for reference...

The views.py code is: `from django.shortcuts import render, get_object_or_404 from .models import Category, Product

def product_list(request, category_slug=None): category = None categories = Category.objects.all() products = Product.objects.filter(available=True) if category_slug: category = get_object_or_404(Category, slug=category_slug) products = products.filter(category=category) return render(request, 'shop/product/list.html', {'category': category, 'categories': categories, 'products': products})

def product_detail(request, id, slug): product = get_object_or_404(Product, id=id, slug=slug, available=True)

return render(request,
              'shop/product/detail.html',
              {'product': Product})`

and the urls.py code in the app folder is: `from django.urls import path from . import views

app_name = 'shop'

urlpatterns = [ path('', views.product_list, name='product_list'), path('/', views.product_list, name='product_list_by_category'), path('//', views.product_detail, name='product_detail'), ]`

Realized the error that was causing it -- the product object that was passed onto get_object_or_404 on the views.py should have been 'product' instead of 'Product'.
