similar to: Routing multiple sub-categories

I have a project I''m trying to decide if I want to use rails for. I''m new to rails, so I''m not sure how easy it would be to implement something like this using ActiveRecord. Here''s the situation: Category > subcategory > subcategory > product Category > subcategory > product Some categories will have many subcategories, others few. I want

I''m working on a simple CMS. The main data type are "listings" a listing habtm (has_and_belongs_to_many) categories and subcategories. Subcategories belong_to categories. Subcategories are basically the same as categories, but they are treated differently in a few situations. The problem is, I can''t seem to write the view/controller/model code that allows me to

First off, hi, I''m [obviously] new :O) Please excuse my question as I''m sure it''s been answered, but I can''t find it anywhere. I have a table of categories: id name 1 Foo 2 Bar I have things which belong_to categories: id category_id subject date 1 1 my subject 07/09/2004 and Further classifications which belong_to categories: id category_id name 1 1 More

I have a simple CMS I''m creating, and the primary model is the "listing". A listing habtm (has_and_belongs_to_many) categories (up to two) - allowing the listing to print its categories and a category to print its listings. I also need subcategories, which are different from categories in two ways: a listing can have as many subcategories (from it''s two categories)

I''m trying to wrap my caffeine soaked brain around has_many :through following along at: http://rails.techno-weenie.net/tip/2005/12/23/teaching_your_blog_model_new_tricks_with_has_many_through I think my models are a little more complex than what fits this narrative. I have a directory of members, each member can belong to multiple categories. The category table references itself

I''m writing a simple CMS where every item ("listing") HABTM categories and subcategories (which themselves belong_to a category). What I''m trying to do now is create a UI effect for listing creation: when you go to create a listing, only the possible categories will be shown, but when you select a category a set of new categories will be displayed like so: Lions

I have a model, listings. Listings habtm categories and subcategories, which are seperate models. What I want to do is search categories for certain items, like so: @categories = Category.find(:all, :conditions => ["name LIKE ?", "#%{:search_string}%" and subcategories for the same: @subcategories = Subcategory.find(:all, :conditions => ["name LIKE ?",

Hello, I''m trying to create categories that have their own subcategories, and each subcategory may have its own subcategories, .. and so on. After some reading, I found out that the best way for creating such a thing is to use acts_as_tree, but I didn''t find any tutorial or article that explain this in a clear way. After a lot of work I was finally able to create categories and

I''ve got a model, "category" and another model "subcategory." Each subcategory belongs_to a category, and a category has_many subcategories. What I need to do is set it up so that I can search Category and Subcategory with one .find call. So: Category.find(:all, <etc) will find categories and subcategories. Now, I believe this can be done by making

Hello there! This is my first post! ;) I''m starting on ruby on rails, so I have many doubts about it! I''m trying to create a system that uses categories/subcategories. I created a scaffold for a table that has the following fields: - id int(11) - name varchar(50) - keyname varchar(50) - visible enum(''0'',''1'') default ''0'' -

Hi, i was looking through the docs and couldn''t find a good clean solution for ordering a partial with an :order clause. say i was iterating over categories and thier corresponding sub-categories (regular belongs to) and wanted to order the subcategories according to a certain column; <% for category in @categories %> <% render: partial => ''sublist'',

I''ve got a menu in which I have all of my categories as links. Each category also has subcategories. I want to set it up so when you mouse over the category the subcategories will pop up (to the right of the main list, but that''s just CSS). This is what I have so far: <% for category in @categories %> <a href="#"

hi, there :) Consider a blogging application whereby a user is trying to add a new blog. He/she has to select a category. Upon selecting a category from a drop down box, a new sub categories drop down box will be created (hence an AJAX call). Got this implemented and it''s ok. Now, let''s assume that a given blog can have multiple categories (and subcategories). For example, a

I have a model, categories, and another model, subcategories. In my current code these have no connection except for the fact that categories has_many subcategories and a subcategory belongs_to a category. But by necessity, I need to change it so Subcategory extends Category; so that I can search both models with one command. I was hoping it would be as simple as changing Subcategory <

I think the category feature of eBay is very handy. I want to figure out a way to to make this function work on rails. What is so sepcial with ebay''s category feature?

Ahoy, I made this pager, " def list @item_pages = Paginator.new self, Item.count, 10, @params[''page''] @items = Item.find :all, :conditions => "category_id = #{params[:condition]}", :limit => @item_pages.items_per_page, :offset => @item_pages.current.offset @categories = Category.find_all

I'm wondering what the procedure is to propose additions the the Registered Categories list for the FreeDesktop.org menu-spec. I've found that the Game; subcategories currently available are a little lacking in variety. I think two more should be added: ShootingGame and DrivingGame. I'd like to use those in my .desktop files while maintaining standards compliance, so how could I go
