Date Problem

In an ecommerce database there's an orders table with the columns id, product_id, user_id, address_id, ordered_on, status and cost. Count the total number of orders that have the status of shipped yesterday. Alias it to shipped_yesterday.

My code: SELECT COUNT(*) AS "shipped_yesterday" FROM orders WHERE ordered_on = DATE ("NOW", "-1 day");

The date does not appear to be the problem.

The challenge says to count the "orders that have the status of shipped...". So in addition to filtering by ordered_on, you will also need to filter on the status field.
