Hello. I'm a rookie as well and I'm having exactly this same issue. Trying to figure out what to do, but haven't been successful unfortunately. Based on what I read (convention over configuration), I understand that I should to make a poll_list.html file and store this in templates, to get my site to work. Or should I just change the name of my index.html file in templates? Am I missing something here? Thanks a lot guys.
