Hi I want my admin user to create news posts that are the viewed on the public News page. I was thinking that this could be achieved by having the admin user create "Blogs", but i only want the admin user to create these. Any ideas on how this can be achieved? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Any ideas on how this can be achieved?Without the slightest idea about any of your code it is impossible for us to answer this other than to suggest that you only make the page for creating blogs visible to admins and, when a request is made to create one, check that the current user is an admin.

Assuming that the line it is complaining about is @post = Post.find(params[:id]) which you should be able to verify from the stack trace then that suggests that params[:id] is not set. Have a look in log/development.log and it will tell you what parameters are being passed in. Also have a look at the Rails Guide on Debugging and it will provide a number of techniques for debugging your code. In particular look at using ruby-debug to break into your code to inspect data and follow the flow. In this case if you cannot see the problem you could break in before the offending line and see what is in params.

Why? I''m guessing you''re not using a 13-year-old version of Ruby, or the original release of Rails, and you''re almost certainly not looking at web pages in Mosaic or Netscape 1.0, so that logic escapes me... -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ hassan.schroeder-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org http://about.me/hassanschroeder twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

There are very many examples of inline styling still about and if one is not familiar with css then the easiest thing to do is just to copy the example initially. If one is just experimenting with code there is no point going to the efforts of converting it to use css when it may just be thrown away anyway.

I agree with Colin. He is starting to code now, he should focus in one or two things at a time. But Richard, CSS is *very* good and you should learn how to use it. :) This is the RailsGuides page about debugging: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/debugging_rails_applications.html Good luck!
