this line of code at = AttachedInfo.objects.filter(attachedMarker=m.id, title=title) returns a queryset and you are trying to access a field of it (that does not exist). what you probably need is at = AttachedInfo.objects.get(attachedMarker=m.id, title=title)

The single most significant advantage is inheritance. On a large project it’s likely that you will have lots of similar views.
