Thanks very much for your suggestions. I created the file in models
and modified a url helper to use it and received the following error:
TypeError: URL() got an unexpected keyword argument 'secure'
A few follow up questions:
1. Did you intend to say 'model' rather than module?
2. How do I integrate 0_redefine_url.py into my app such that the URL
helper will accept the keyword argument 'secure'?
Thanks
- Jay
