similar to: can I use acts_as_list with a has_many :through association

First, BRAVO for this wonderful plugin: has_many_polymorphs ! Now my problem: 4 models : Collection, Page, Fragment, Belonging (which is the join table): 1 class Collection < ActiveRecord::Base 2 has_many_polymorphs :elements, 3 :through => :belongings, 4 :from => [:pages, :fragments, :collections], 5 :as => :collector, 6 :parent_order =>

Hello, I''ve tried to set up a class with acts_as_list with a scope argument that restricts a list to records with the same foreign key. For example : database : CREATE TABLE `families` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '''', PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 AUTO_INCREMENT=3 ; INSERT INTO

Here''s my issue: running ruby -I test test/unit/something_test.rb for each of my unit tests works perfectly. However, running rake test:units brings errors in all of them - some object becomes nil for some reason. Why might this be happening? Specifics: the object that is successfully not nil when I run the unit tests one-by-one but becomes nil when I do rake test:units is defined like

I''m trying to figure out a good way to get acts_as_list and the new sortable lists to play nicely together, but they don''t seem like they''re designed to mesh well. The ajax sortable lists post a complete ordered list of ids back to the server after every change, but acts_as_list is designed to deal with diff-like changes, rather than reordering the whole list from

How do I manage multiple lists? This is what I need. Sometimes an item needs to be moved from one list to another. class Item < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :group acts_as_list :scope => :group end class Group < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :items, :order => "position" end Now, sometimes, I may need to change an item from one group to another. But when I do that,

only just found the script.aculo.us site. brilliant. much respect. wondered if anyone can point me in the right direction on this drag and drop list re-ordering type thing, i''ve read through what I can but to be honest it''s gone right over my head! How do I get the new order that has been established via dragging list elements around and store them in a database. I figured an

right now i''m adding an item to my ''list'' but i''m unsure how to move it to a certain spot in the list. specifically i want to put it at the bottom of the list. i assumed that if i did something like parent.children << new_child then the ''position'' field in the child table would be given some sensible default by rails but instead

I need an ordered (sortable tree) and I just was thinking if somehting like this is possible: class Item< ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree :order => "position" acts_as_list :scope => ''parent_id = #{self.id}'' end For my understanding mixing of two acts_as should be p?ssible, at least in this case, right? Unfortunatly the :scope is not working, I am not

Hey, Using Ruby 1.8.5, postgres-pr-0.4.0, activerecord-1.15.2, Rails 1.2.2 and PostgreSQL 8.2.3. I''m following the O''Reilly book "Ruby on Rails", so you can tell I know precious little of what I''m doing ;-) Well, I''ve created some models, and was working through examples, and executed the following from a console: >> show = Slideshow.find 1

When run from the console, the following code works, when run through the WEBrick server I get a "You have a nil object where you didn''t expect it!" class Competition < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :comp_dates, :order=>:position def initial_date comp_dates.first end def display_dates i_d = initial_date if i_d.nil? return "unknown"

I have been fighting this problem for months now. My performance under Samba and XP has ben umbearable. The scenario is running Samba 2.2.7a under SuSE 8.0 as a PDC. The XP machine logs onto Samba and the roaming profiles are downloaded then stops for 15 minutes or so. The network is verified 100Meg full-duplex, FTP transfers between the machines are robust and so no problems in connectivity. Any
