Angular not working in Module 5 #30

Hi,

I ran into this issue too. Actually, the angular is working just fine. When you open the homepage(localhost:3000/#/), you aren't seeing any posts because there are none in the database. In order to create posts you have to register as a new user first.

Now here lies the problem. The register link doesn't work and you can't login either without signing up first. This issue can be resolved by editing an incorrect reference in the HTML for the homepage(index.html).In line 17, where the page to be redirected to when the Register link is clicked is specified, it points to a page called signup which doesn't exist. The code for the signup page is instead present in register.html.

So, simply replace #/signup by #/register. This will allow you to create a new user in the database and create tweets(or cheeps). Once created and stored in the database, these posts will be shown on the homepage even when you're not logged in.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
