Alexander,
Thanks a lot for the offer... that's very kind of you. I found the
problem:
{% for Message in messages %}
<p>{{ message.sender }}</p>
{% endfor %}
I had originally thought to use the model name in the "for" tag (this
would be Message). This made me realize that the variables didn't line
up with the rest of the loop:
{% for message in messages %}
<p>{{ message.sender }}</p>
{% endfor %}
now works just fine. It's still not displaying the actual sender, but
that's because "Sender" is actually a user property, not a string.
Thanks for your help!
Sam
