I\'m new to Django and working my way through \"The Django Book\" by Holovaty and Kaplan-Moss. I have a project called \"mysite\" that contains two applications called \"books\
from books import views
from contact import views
You are overwriting the name views
. You need to import them as different names or as absolute names.
import books.views
import contact.views
... or ...
from books import views as books_views
from contact import views as contact_views
Then use the correct name when defining your URLs. (books.views.search
or books_views.search
depending on the method you choose)
