Treehouse TeacherHi there, Keenan Smith! Just a tiny typo You forgot a .
in the middle.
You wrote:
models.Post.create(user=g.user_get_current_object(),
But you meant:
models.Post.create(user=g.user._get_current_object(),
There should be a .
between "user" and "_get_current_object()".
Hope this helps!
