similar to: Code reviews: my dumb use of acts_as_commentable (newbie)

I have a controller method called update_all that grabs parameters for about 30 form fields and saves them to the database. My current code looks to see if there is a string in params[] for each form field (two fields for each SelfEvaluationItem) and saves the updated self_evaluation_answer if a string is available. Since this is iterated code, I am almost certain that this generates 30 or so

Warning: I am as green as #00FF00 with rails :-) I have an rhtml view that shows a survey: /views/survey/show.rhtml. I have a Survey model, helper and controller. I''m using the acts_as_commentable plugin to collect comments, and trying to save user comments from users who have taken a survey (don''t ask -- it''s just a test). To save the comment, I need the id of the

Hi All, I am just trying to learn ruby/rails so please don''t flame me if this is a stupid question. As a learning project I decided to create my own blog using ROR.

I''m trying to map Rails to an existing schema, and having a bit of a time of it. I''ve got a table Content, and I''ve got a table Review, which is a type of content. So content has an ''id'' field, and Review has a ''contentid'' field. Not all Content has a Review, but all Reviews have exactly one Content. How do I represent this?

this is my error: Processing ApplicationController#create (for 127.0.0.1 at 2009-08-17 00:57:56) [POST] Parameters: {"comment"=>{"name"=>"asdasd", "body"=>"asdasd"}, "commit"=>"Add Comment", "post_id"=>"19",

If anybody on edge familiar with this could help, that would be "great" :) I have different types of things I want to be "reviewable". So, instead of having a slew of HABTM... this new Polymorphic Associations schtick seemed like the best solution. I have everything setup as I thought it should be (so I think)... but it doesn''t appear to be working correctly. Here

For the life of me I can''t get it to work. Here is an example of my syntax. I''m trying to make comment.name a link to comment.web_site only if there is a comment.web_site.

I''ve read AWDR and especially the part concerning adding child line_items to an order. Unfortunately I want to do my process in reverse and in doing what I thought would work I get a null object error when trying to append the children to the parent. This is a _major_ stumbling block in my Rails use as almost every one of my projects has needed this so its a pretty vital problem I need

I am trying to write a plugin, ''acts_as_commentable'', for my models - Image, Book, Music and so on, I do not want to use polymorphic association, so very model should have its own comment class.

Hi, i try to understand how plugins work in detail. Often you see stuff like: class Post < ActiveRecord::Base   acts_as_commentable end I wonder what''s happen all there. What kind of language-feature is behind this call "acts_as_commentable" ? In my opinion you need some kind of extend or include to extend the functionality of a model. And exactly this is which i found

I find that my app is doing a lot of db queries to get comment counts for various objects, as I reference these counts frequenly in my views. This is using acts_as_commentable. Anyone have any tips for adding counter caching to acts_as_commentable? I assume this is possible with polymorphic associations? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I recently started back up with Rails and things are going well up until now. I''ve set up acts_as_commentable in my Post model and it''s working great. Problem is users are able to create a "blank" comment. I''ve added the following validations in the comment.rb file generated by acts_as_commentable to limit the comment length: [code]
