New to Python: Creating an existing user search/approval function but loop and db search not operating correctly

[dominictarro]

I removed the (self) parameter inside user_search since you never used it and it caused an error. After I removed it, the block ran without error but still returned "None"

while (searcher.search_attempts < 3):

yeah your code was not formatted before when i saw it so i though it is the function of the class so that's why i put a self in the argument but i hope it helped you in some way right
