Django: child model edit comment not working

Question

I got problem with my edit comments when i press the edit comment from the template i get no error but is redirected to the top of the same page. Anyone got any idea how i can get it to allow me to edit the comment?

This post is edited with only the code needed and i fixed the delete comment from before so that code is removed.

Here is my code:

views.py:

from django.shortcuts import render, redirect, reverse, get_object_or_404
from django.contrib import messages
from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
from django.db.models import Q
from django.db.models.functions import Lower

from .models import Product, Category, Review
from .forms import ProductForm, ReviewForm




def product_detail(request, product_id):
    product = get_object_or_404(Product, pk=product_id)
    if request.method == 'POST':
        rating = request.POST.get('rating', 3)
        content = request.POST.get('content', '')
        Review.objects.create(
            product=product,
            rating=rating,
            content=content,
            created_by=request.user
        )
        # redirect to the same page
        return redirect('product_detail', product_id=product_id)

    reviews = Review.objects.filter(product=product)
    context = {
        'product': product,
        'reviews': reviews
    }
    return render(request, 'products/product_detail.html', context)





 @login_required
def edit_review(request, review_id):
    """
    Saves review form edited by user
    """
    review = get_object_or_404(Review, pk=review_id)
    product = Product.objects.get(name=review.product)
    if request.method == 'POST':
        review_form = ReviewForm(request.POST or None, instance=review)
        if review_form.is_valid():
            review_form.save()
            messages.success(request, 'Successfully updated product!')
            return redirect(reverse('product_detail', args=[product.id]))

        # Success message if added
        messages.success(request, 'Thank You! Review was edited')
    else:
        # Error message if form was invalid
        messages.error(request, 'Something went wrong. '
                                'Make sure the form is valid.')

    form = ReviewForm(instance=review)
    messages.info(request, f'You are editing {review_id}')

    template = 'products/edit_review.html'
    context = {

Answer 1

for the first problem in the delete view you must refer to the model with capital Review

@login_required
def delete_review(request, review_id):
    review = Review.objects.filter(review_id).last()

For the second problem you can see detailed information about this error and how to handle it, from Here
