similar to: STI and :through, not working?

Need some advice. I''ve got two modules: artists and paintings. In my home page, I''ve got a 2nd page that says "Browse paintings", which displays ALL paintings of ALL artists.

How come I allways immediately run into difficult stuff when I''m trying some new programming language? Am I blind for the simplicity of Ruby/Rail, which a see must be there?

Hi list, how are ya? So, my current project is just begging for the ability to have parameterized associations in my ActiveRecord classes.
