Rails - Feb 2008 - problem with posting with acts as taggable on steroids

hi all

i''m trying to have a post with tags included but i''m getting
undefined method `tag_with''

i''ve already added acts_as_taggable to the model

and on the controller the code for creating the post is:

  def create
    @post = Post.new(params[:post])
    @post.tag_with(params[:tag_list])
    @post.user = current_user
    if @post.save
        redirect_to root_url
    else
        render :action => ''new''
    end
  end

and the form on the view has the tagging code:

<p><label for="tag_list">Tags</label><br/>
<%= text_field_tag ''tag_list'', @post.tags.collect{|t|
t.name}.join(" ")
%>

since the acts_as_taggable is in the model i don''t see why it would
give
me undefined method.

any help would be greatly appreciateddd thank youu

You might want to have a look at the readme in the 
vendor/plugins/acts_as_taggable_on_steroids directory.

You will read the text hereafter.
In short : there is not tag_with method.
To add a tag do : p.tag_list.add("Great", "Awful")

=== Basic tagging

Let''s suppose users have many posts and we want those posts to have 
tags.
The first step is to add +acts_as_taggable+ to the Post class:

  class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
    acts_as_taggable

    belongs_to :user
  end

We can now use the tagging methods provided by acts_as_taggable, 
<tt>#tag_list</tt> and <tt>#tag_list=</tt>. Both these
methods work like regular attribute accessors.

  p = Post.find(:first)
  p.tag_list # []
  p.tag_list = "Funny, Silly"
  p.save
  p.tag_list # ["Funny", "Silly"]

You can also add or remove arrays of tags.

  p.tag_list.add("Great", "Awful")
  p.tag_list.remove("Funny")
