I think I may have a similar problem. Once I've imported my models
into the shell the following does exactly what I want it to:
In [10]: from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404
In [11]: written=get_object_or_404(Writer, slug__iexact='joe-bloggs')
In [12]: queryset=Entry.live.filter(writer=written)
In [13]: queryset
Out[13]: [<Entry: Eggs>, <Entry: Spam>, <Entry: Bar>, <Entry: foo>]
But the view I'm using, which is almost identical, returns empty in
the {% for item in stories %} part of my template:
def writer_stories(request, writer):
# Look up the writer (and raise a 404 if it can't be found).
written=get_object_or_404(Writer, slug__iexact=writer)
return list_detail.object_list(
request,
queryset=Entry.live.filter(writer=written),
template_name='newssite/writer_archive.html',
template_object_name='stories',
I must admit I just don't know enough yet to tell whether this is the
same problem as the OP is having - if not please let me know and I'll
re-post as a new topic.
Kind regards
