Generic views tutorial

[zvikara]

In Writing your first Django app, part 4,
When changing the sample to use generic views,

1. polls/urls.py must include template_object_name:

   info_dict = {
       'queryset': Poll.objects.all(),
       'template_object_name': 'poll',
   }
   
   

2. In poll_list.html, you must change latest_poll_list to poll_list.

(This is in django 1.02)

The ​section on setting up generic views already states:

In previous parts of the tutorial, the templates have been provided with a context that contains the poll and latest_poll_list context variables. However, the generic views provide the variables object and object_list as context. Therefore, you need to change your templates to match the new context variables. Go through your templates, and modify any reference to latest_poll_list to object_list, and change any reference to poll to object.
