Hello group, I''m new to Rails and i''m trying to create a ''nested'' form for user to a company. I would like the client to be able to create a company in the users sign up form. I get the part were you can choose a company from a collection, but i want to allow the user to create a new company through a text field in the sign up user form. This is what i have: class User < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :company has_one :company attr_accessible :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me, :admin, :company_id, :firstname, :lastname accepts_nested_attributes_for :company end class Company < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :users accepts_nested_attributes_for :users attr_accessible :name #validates_presence_of :name #validates_uniqueness_of :name end and in the form: <%= simple_form_for(resource, :as => resource_name, :url => registration_path(resource_name)) do |f| %> <%= f.error_notification %> <div class="inputs"> <%= f.fields_for :company do |cf| %> <%= cf.input :name, :required => true, :autofocus => true %> <% end %> <%= f.input :email, :required => true, :autofocus => true %> <%= f.input :password, :required => true %> <%= f.input :password_confirmation, :required => true %> </div> <div class="form-actions"> <%= f.button :submit, :class => ''btn-primary'', :value => ''Sign up'' %> </div> <% end %> The above code gives a company name text field in the form but on submit rails trows an error: Can''t mass-assign protected attributes: company. I probably have to add a route to? until now i only have resources :companies and resources :users. I did my best to google for a solution/ example.. found some nested form examples but its not clear to me. Any help on this would be appreciated.
