Classmethod error

[jarrodlatshaw]

When publishing an article I receive the following: "never_cache didn't receive an HttpRequest. If you are decorating a classmethod, be sure to use @method_decorator." Looking through the code there are static decorators. Am I missing something here? Is this user error? Anyone else getting this?

@jarrodlatshaw which Django version are you using? I guess something newer than 3.1.3?

The project is a bit old, so the Django version is not newest - I guess the problem might be there.

The best option is to use version specified in requirements (3.1.3). But, if you already have a newer version of Django, the best option would be to use virtual env. So before making pip install -r requirements.txt, you should python3 -m venv venv, then cd venv and activate your virtual environment (depends on OS how to do it). Finally, after virtual env is activated, you can make pip install -r requirements.txt

Hope it helps!
