Question

I am using this howto for writing a blog app. I have created two category items: news and events. I want to rended the posts belonging to those categoris seperately. When a specific template is called, only the posts belonging to the categories specified should get displayed.

Answer 1

Let’s say you have two views, one for rendering your news, and one for rendering your events:

def news_view(request):
    blog_posts = Blog.objects.filter(category__title="news")

    return render(request, "news.html", {"posts": blog_posts})


def events_view(request):
    blog_posts = Blog.objects.filter(category__title="events")

    return render(request, "events.html", {"posts": blog_posts})

Then you just need to create your templates and the proper url handlers in urls.py and you’re good to go.
