I need help with this Django project

I worked on a link shortener app where you can create links for later, but when viewing the page in production, the home route does not display the content as it does on localhost. What may be the problem? Live URL: https://xata-link-shortner.onrender.com/ Repo: https://github.com/Terieyenike/xata-link-shortner

When creating a new link, it shows a 500 server error in production.

Hi, looking at the prod app, when creating the link the server returns HTTP 302 (redirect to another location) to location / so the browser instead goes to / which returns a 500.

So it is the handling of that redirect that causes the 500 It looks like it is sporadic though because in Chrome it works

it is meant to redirect to the home route (/) and replace the "no links ..." to an actual link created and its other details.
