[Answer]-Django can't find the right queryset

✅

Entry.objects is a manager, not a queryset. You put published inside your custom queryset, so you need to do Entry.objects.all().published() or Entry.objects.get_queryset().published()

You also aren’t implementing published correctly. It should be more like:

class EntryQueryset(QuerySet):

    def published(self):
        return self.filter(status='published')

Your method published() should be on the EntryManager class, there is no need to create a new QuerySet class (generally that is only when you want to dig deeper into how data is fetched from the database).

The correct solution would be:

class EntryManger(models.Manager):
    def published(self):
        print 'using right custom manager'
        return self.filter(self.status == 'published')

You can delete the EntryQuerySet class entirely.
