Here is the code in my controller: namesearch = "%" + params[:name].strip + "%" @product_pages, @products = paginate :product,

The built-in Rails pagination is fairly limited...you pass in the model name, and optionally some conditions, and it generates a paginated query for you. This gets to be very bad if you''ve got any custom queries. class Company < ActiveRecord::Base def complete_videos Video.find :all, :conditions => "company_id=#{id} AND status=''complete''", :order

Is there a quick and easy way to paginate something like @member.items (Member with has_many :items)?

Does anybody know how to paginate a find_by_sql query? Unfortunately I need to paginate a query which is next to impossible for ActiveRecord or just too much of a pain to implement.

The head of the tree supports the :select option for find which allows one to override the default select(*) behavior of find. In my case, this allows me to throw in a DISTINCT call to ensure the results are of course distinct. Paginate supports :select since it passes it right through to find. However, count does not support it. This causes the paginator to think it has more entries to
