In Rails < 3, I could have a validation on model such as: validates_presence_of :name, :message => "some custom message here" If I try something similar in Rails 3: validates :name, :presence => true , :message => "some other custom message" obviously, it throws an exception. So the question is, in Rails 3, how to you give a simple custom message? Do I need to go through and set up a custom validation class for each validation, just to show a different message? I''ve looked at: http://www.railsapi.com/doc/rails-v3.0.0/classes/ActiveModel/Validations/ClassMethods.html#M003721 but it seems to show that a custom class would need to be set up for each attribute of my models? I''m sure there''s a shortcut, but have yet to find it.

Hello John, In Rails 3 also validates_presence_of is present. Why you are not using this one? validates_presence_of :name, :message => "some custom message here" Thanks!

Hello.
Try this:

}

I guess I''m going to just have to ditch that and go back to the old. Seems to be another "New and Shiny" way of doing things, but lose simple functionality... ;) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I didn''t have quite the right syntax. That seems to work. I''m just trying to give a custom error message if an attribute is blank, besides the normal "can''t be blank".
