NoReverseMatch Error in Django when mapping items

Question

I am trying to map different items using the pk(primary key). I have used it in my urls.py, views.py as well as the templates file. But I am a NoReverseMatch Error. I have also tried changing the str to int in the urls.py file but it still gave the same error. I hope I could get someone to kindly help. Thanks

Answer 1

As defined in your urls.py, "update_bar" requires a parameter, in this case <str:pk>. You need to rewrite your redirect function in views.py to include this parameter, for example:

return redirect('updatebar', pk=pk)
