Funny Django `NoReverseMatch error`

Everything was working until I decided to use django extends for some part of my template to make them reuseable and now I am getting NoReverseMatch error.

url.py:

url(r'^school/(?P<id>\d+)/(?P<name>[-\w]+)/$', views.school_profile, name='school'),

views.py:

def school_profile(request, id, name):
    #Some actions here...

index.html:

<p class='mini_links'><a href="{% url 'mysite:school' user.school.id user.school|slugify %}">{{user.school|title}} </a></p>

That is the html line that is generating the error and I can't for the life of me figure it out.

NOTE:

Formally the html link is just in index.html but I have now extracted (extract.html) away and it is now coming through:

index.html:

{% extends 'mysite/base.html' %}

{% block mainBody %} 
    {% include 'mysite/extract.html' %}
{% endblock %}

I really can't figure out what I am not doing right.

You are trying to reverse a namespaced URL but you don't seem to have defined one. Just remove the mysite: namespace from your reverse:

{% url 'school' user.school.id user.school|slugify %}

Update: Your code and stack trace are not confirming each other. It looks like you did not paste the actual code you are running. So either change your reverse to {% url 'mysite:school' %} or your url name to ..., name='school_profile')
