Python Blog Tutorial #5 - Liking Posts

Welcome back to the blog tutorial series! In this video, we'll be wrapping up the series by showing how to like and unlike posts. We'll also go over calling back to the flask server using javascript so we don't need to refresh the page when comments are added or posts are liked.

Thank you for this tutorial, Tim! I definitely learned a lot in this series. I'll also try to improve the website's looks or add more functionalities just to test my knowledge.

Love it tim. I learned a lot. I hope in the future you make something like this but a way to make it more modular and to read from api's like adding excell to the site or having tabs etc. Oh and for any newbies like myself having the database not working. Delete the Delete at the bottom of the inni file and replace likes 24 and 25 with this: with app.app_context():
db.create_all() that should create the database. Apparently they removed the ability to pass the (app) in new versions.

I have learned a lot of things since subscribed this channel.

[oowmas]

Thanks Tim.
I always enjoy watching and following your tutorial to learn python.

I followed your steps and I realized that if I made a post(post id =1), comment and like it, and then delete the post,
the like and comment do not be deleted and left in the database.
So if I made a new post in which post id=1 again, the like and comment will be related to the new post.

Is that a bug or I missed out something in the tutorial =(

Thank you so much for this tutorial, I was able to learn so much from this, im curious to use pyscript instead of javascript to see how things go, I will definitely try it on your code

[aadarshbaral]

Please Tim at the end. Teach us where to keep the admin credentials. Like the passwords required to access the admin section. I have looked up for many video s but ended up more confused.
