Hi, I am using AJAX so much that I never refresh the entire webpage for the admin side of a webapp. If two people are viewing the same data and one person makes a change then I want the change to show up in the other person''s page. I can have the client poll the server every two seconds to look for changes. I''m not really interested in Comet for keeping a connection open

Hi, How are people specifying models which act_as_list? I''m thinking that it would be possible to check that acts_as_list instance methods have been added to a class using something like this: describe Page, "acts_as_list" do it "should act as a list" do Page.ancestors.should be_include(ActiveRecord::Acts::List::InstanceMethods) end it "should use

Hi, I have an rjs file. I only have one controller called called front. I have views called "new_title.rhtml" and "_new_title.rhtml" These work page.replace_html ''title'', ''new title'' page.replace_html ''title'', :partial => ''new_title'' page.replace_html ''title'',

in a single table inheritance model, rails will automatically set the scope for acts_as_list to the ''type'' field as well as any other scope conditions we provide. Is there a way to disable this? i want to use STI but I want acts_as_list to disregard the class type when getting/setting positions. thanks alan

This is what I have class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :image, :polymorphic => true acts_as_list :scope => image end class Place < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :photos, :as => :image end class Child < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :photos, :as => :image end I want to be able to reorder the images.

Hi, If I have a db table categories - id - name - parent_id - position is it alright to have the Category model act_as_tree and for each level act_as_list? class Category < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree :order => :position acts_as_list :scope => :parent_id end Thanks, Peter

I have a model "Childmodel" that belongs_to two other models "Parent1" and "Parent2". "Parent1" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp1" and "Parent2" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp2". i.e. The child is independently positioned within each of its parents. This works fine and gets me the useful

Hello all, I''m having trouble using acts_as_list with acts_as_tree to order the "children". I''ve found a few old posts on the web that seem to indicate that this once worked. class Whatever < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree :order => :position acts_as_list :scope => :parent_id Although the ''position'' field is being populated, it appears

Hi. I''m running Rails 3.0 on Mac OS X, and I''m trying to get the acts_as_list, other plugins, as well as libraries running. From what I understand, rails should be loading those automatically once placed in the proper directories. However, that is not happening in my case, and I''m getting errors such as "undefined method `acts_as_list'' for

Hi, I''m getting the error below, and I''m not sure where to find "acts_as_list" ...

Hello Rails experts, Need your help in following issue with the acts_as_list and single table inheritence Code details : http://pastie.org/1214846 Hello Rails experts, Need your help in following issue with the acts_as_list and single table inheritence Code details : http://pastie.org/1214846 But here I need create those entries with the scope on Relater only and not on RelaterFeed or

I don''t think acts as nested set works in this situation because I''m still just dealing with a single list

I miss the svn:externals feature when installing plugins that are managed under git. the -x switch used to do this. I''ve released a gem called externals that manages subprojects in an scm agnostic way so that I can use an svn:externals-like workflow with git. It''s used like this: ext install git://github.com/rails/acts_as_list.git This accomplishes the same thing as:

OK, probably the most frustrated I''ve ever been with Rails. If I don''t figure this out, I''m going to, um... try again tomorrow. I''m simply trying to create a plugin. I did the ./script/generate plugin MY_NEW_PLUGIN and wha-hoo great! Well, not really... This plugin uses other plugins. For example, acts_as_list, acts_as_money etc.. How the heck to I get these

Hi, I would like to add a new method to the rjs "page" object through a plugin.
