Append does not work in For Loop

first_sale_all_menu             = []

for one_product_category in Product_Category.objects.all().filter(slug__in=('3-pack-items-c', '3-pack-items-b', '3-pack-items', '3-pack-items-d')):
    link_to_mamapedia_cat   = link_to_home_page + one_product_category.get_absolute_url()
    mamapedia_category_name = one_product_category.name
    if (one_product_category.image_for_top_menu != None):
        header_image = link_to_home_page + one_product_category.main_picture.url  # TODO use thumbnail
    else:
        header_image = ''

    first_sale_all_menu.append({
        'menu_children_url'         : link_to_mamapedia_cat,
        'menu_children_title'       : mamapedia_category_name,
        'menu_product_image_src'    : header_image
    })

Somehow that append() method does not work, it is still empty list for first_sale_all_menu.

Just to make sure, even this does not work:

first_sale_all_menu             = []
for one_product_category in Product_Category.objects.all().filter(slug__in=('3-pack-items-c', '3-pack-items-b', '3-pack-items', '3-pack-items-d')):
    link_to_mamapedia_cat   = link_to_home_page + one_product_category.get_absolute_url()
    mamapedia_category_name = one_product_category.name
    if (one_product_category.image_for_top_menu != None):
        header_image = link_to_home_page + one_product_category.main_picture.url  # TODO use thumbnail
    else:
        header_image = ''

    first_sale_all_menu.append({
        'menu_children_url': 'link_to_mamapedia_cat',
        'menu_children_title': 'mamapedia_category_name',
        'menu_product_image_src': 'header_image'
    })

But this works:

first_sale_all_menu             = []
first_sale_all_menu.append({
        'menu_children_url': 'link_to_mamapedia_cat',
        'menu_children_title': 'mamapedia_category_name',
        'menu_product_image_src': 'header_image'
    })

I don't know why, but append() does not work inside my for loop. And yes, link_to_mamapedia_cat, mamapedia_category_name, header_image all have String values.

Ok i got the problem, turns out the query never got executed, wrong Model. Haha.

The point is, very simple, your loop hasn't been executed. You can add an output to check.

first_sale_all_menu             = []

for one_product_category in Product_Category.objects.all().filter(slug__in=('3-pack-items-c', '3-pack-items-b', '3-pack-items', '3-pack-items-d')):
    print(1)
    link_to_mamapedia_cat   = link_to_home_page + one_product_category.get_absolute_url()
    mamapedia_category_name = one_product_category.name
    if (one_product_category.image_for_top_menu != None):
        header_image = link_to_home_page + one_product_category.main_picture.url  # TODO use thumbnail
    else:
        header_image = ''

    first_sale_all_menu.append({
        'menu_children_url'         : link_to_mamapedia_cat,
        'menu_children_title'       : mamapedia_category_name,
        'menu_product_image_src'    : header_image
    })
