It doesnt appear the secrets!

[ezeloop]

I have all the code like the posted one, and it doesnt appear the secrets!

app.get("/secrets", function(req, res){
User.find({"secret": {$ne: null}}, function(err, foundUsers){
if (err){
console.log(err);
} else {
if (foundUsers) {
res.render("secrets", {usersWithSecrets: foundUsers});
}
}
});
});

in the db i have the secret, but i cant show them!

you need to edit secrets.ejs

edit secrets.ejs with
<% usersWithSecrets.forEach(function(ele){ %>

<%= ele.secret%>

<%} %>

Same problem with me.
First of all, it is not saving input (secret) into DB, that's why it is not rendering secrets.
I copied the code from here, but no change. Tried restarting DB and so on. Any idea why?

I guess you forgot to add submit post route:

app.post("/submit", function(req, res) {
  const submittedSecret = req.body.secret;

  User.findById(req.user.id, function(err, foundUser) {
    if (err) {
      console.log(err);
    } else {
      if (foundUser) {
        foundUser.secret = submittedSecret;
        foundUser.save(function() {
          res.redirect("/secrets");
        });
      }
    }
  });
});

Have you update your user schema i.e add secrets: String in user schema?
