💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Passing the name as a plain string without reverse().

Passing the name without quotes.

The redirect function needs a URL string, so use reverse() to get the URL from the name.

4fill in blank

hard

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'str' instead of 'int' for numeric IDs.

Using generic names like 'id' instead of 'post_id'.

The URL converter 'int' captures an integer, and 'post_id' is the parameter name used in the view.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to reverse a named URL 'post_detail' with a dynamic 'post_id' parameter in a view.

Django

url = reverse('[1]', kwargs={{'[2]': [3])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Apost_detail

Bpost_id

C42

Dpost_pk

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the wrong parameter name in kwargs.

Not quoting the URL name.

Passing a variable instead of a value for the parameter.

reverse() needs the URL name, the parameter name as a key in kwargs, and the actual value to fill in.
