Hello SOF,

I am new to django and I misunderstand how to use templates.

I have a a file called base.html which I see as a parent to hello.html.

In hello.html I have this syntax:

{% extends "base.html" %}

{% block hello %}
<h1>hello</h1>
I should see this template. This is the hello.html template.
{% endblock %}

In base.html I have this syntax:

{% block hello %}{% endblock %}

It is my understanding that django should render hello.html inside of base.html

When I deploy my two html files, django ignores my syntax.

Question: How to render hello.html in base.html?

The files are visible inside of github:

https://github.com/danbikle/sof1231/blob/master/hello/templates/base.html https://github.com/danbikle/sof1231/blob/master/hello/templates/hello.html

Also I deployed them to heroku with these commands:

heroku create sof1231
git push heroku master

You can see base.html deployed to https://sof1231.herokuapp.com

Again, How to render hello.html in base.html?

A barebones Python app, which can easily be deployed to Heroku.

This application support the Getting Started with Python on Heroku article - check it out.

Make sure you have Python installed properly. Also, install the Heroku Toolbelt and Postgres.

$ git clone [email protected]:heroku/python-getting-started.git
$ cd python-getting-started
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ createdb python_getting_started
$ heroku local:run python manage.py migrate
$ python manage.py collectstatic
$ heroku local

Your app should now be running on localhost:5000.

$ heroku create
$ git push heroku master
$ heroku run python manage.py migrate
$ heroku open

or
