I think I need a second pair of eyes.
The below example should be self explanatory.
All I need is to be able to reverse my url in the template.
/urls.py
urlpatterns = patterns('', (r'^products/', include('products.urls')), ) /products/urls.py
from django.conf.urls.defaults import patterns, url urlpatterns = patterns('products.views', url(r'^$', view="index", name="index"), ) /templates/products/index.html
<a href="{% url products:index %}"> Products </a> UPDATE
Full stacktrace - http://pastebin.com/9nLp4uP5

reverse() If you need to use something similar to the url template tag in your code, Django provides the following function: reverse (viewname, urlconf=None, args=None, kwargs=None, current_app=None)
{% %} and {{ }} are part of Django templating language. They are used to pass the variables from views to template. {% %} is basically used when you have an expression and are called tags while {{ }} is used to simply access the variable.
Just call redirect() with a URL in your view. It will return a HttpResponseRedirect class, which you then return from your view. Assuming this is the main urls.py of your Django project, the URL /redirect/ now redirects to /redirect-success/ .
{% url 'contact-form' %} is a way to add a link to another one of your pages in the template. url tells the template to look in the URLs.py file. The thing in the quotes to the right, in this case contact-form , tells the template to look for something with name=contact-form .
The syntax changed after Django 1.5 Instead of doing this:
<a href="{% url products_index %}"> Products </a>
You should now do this(string instead):
<a href="{% url 'products_index' %}"> Products </a>

You might try this instead:
urlpatterns = patterns('products.views', url(r'^$', view="index", name="products_index"), ) /templates/products/index.html
<a href="{% url products_index %}"> Products </a> Unless there's a compelling reason you want to namespace your urls, it's way easier just to use a more precise name in urls.py and then use that name in the url template tag.
Update
If the error you're getting is No module named urls then that means one of the urls.py files isn't being read in by the django project. Did you make sure that products has been added to INSTALLED_APPS in the settings.py file? Also, please include a stacktrace in your question so it will be easier to identify where the error is taking place.
