This is the url: http://blog.hasmanythrough.com/articles/2006/04/03/polymorphic-through I do that according to Josh Susser''s procedure: class Tagging < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :tag belongs_to :taggable, :polymorphic => true belongs_to

I''m building a simple support ticket system for use in our office.
