I have a couple different partials for members, to which each have names that somewhat describe what the partial is: ex member_pic <%= render :partial => "admin/members/member_pic", :collection => @members %> Which shows the members pic along with their details. I don''t like the way that to make reference to a single member within the @members collection inside the partial I have to use the partial name, ex member_pic.full_name. I have other cases where it can be confusing. I figure there must be a way around this, since this Rails :), but I haven''t been able to find out how. ...if you are just rendering a single object you could probably pass it in through the locals, but there must be a better way.

Store the reference name as a variable and just do: <%= render :partial => custom_var %> On Dec 18, 2007 9:20 AM, Chris Olsen <rails-mailing-list-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > I have a couple different partials for members, to which each have names > that somewhat describe what the partial is: > > ex member_pic > <%= render :partial => "admin/members/member_pic", :collection => > @members %> > > Which shows the members pic along with their details. > > I don''t like the way that to make reference to a single member within > the @members collection inside the partial I have to use the partial > name, ex member_pic.full_name.

I know if you have a _member.html.erb partial you can do like you mentioned: <%= render :partial => @member %> but that then calls on the _member.html.erb partial. In my case I have a partial called _member_pic.html.erb, but I have a variable of @members that is to be passed into it. I could instead create a collection called @member_pics, but that would lead to further confusion and wouldn''t change how the reference is made within the partial file. Or at least I think :), if not please give me some more details to what you meant.

I think we''re both confused. What are you trying to do again? Could you elaborate?

:) I guess I didn''t make it very clear. The issue that I have is a
making reference the object/collection within the partial ex.
##_member_pic.html
<table id="member-<%= member_pic.id %>"
class="member_photo">
<tr><td><%= image_tag member_pic.photo.public_filename(:thumb)
%></td></tr>
<tr><td><%= member_pic.full_name %></td></tr>
<tr><td><%= mail_to member_pic.email
%></td></tr>
<tr><td><%= member_pic.phone_number %></td></tr>
<tr><td><%= link_to "Remove",
admin_group_member_url(group,
member_pic.group_members.first.id),
:method => :delete %></td></tr>
</table>
<%= render :partial => "admin/members/member_pic", :collection
=>
@members, :locals => {:group => @group} %>
As you can see I have to call member_pic.full_name within the partial
seeing as that is the name of the partial. The reason for this name is
that I have 3 different partials for a member.
I was just wondering if there is a way to better control the reference
that is used within the partial.
Thanks for the help.
BTW the table is needed :)

Oh I see what you mean, I think. You want to see the local name that''s used for the collection? You can''t do this. Also you''re passing in an instance variable as a local, why? The instance will be available in the partial. On Dec 18, 2007 10:50 AM, Chris Olsen <rails-mailing-list-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > :) I guess I didn''t make it very clear.
