todo_lists = TodoList.create( # other code
Change to:
todo_list = TodoList.create( # other code

57,712 PointsWhat's the error - that'll help us pin down whether it is code or a fail etc.

57,712 PointsAh, yes - your line:
within "todo_list_#{todo_list.id}" do
needs to have an additional hash in there:
within "#todo_list_#{todo_list.id}" do
That should clear that error and either throw another one or run O.
Hope it works!
Steve.

57,712 PointsNot sure about Github - you can try my repo but I can't guarantee it is totally correct. And the commits are pretty random and won't follow the course structure, I don't think.
