similar to: newbie q: acts as authenticated or login engine?

I have a few pages where a user may do something (add tags, login, etc) and I would like to redirect them back to the last page they were at before calling that action. Is there an easy way to do this? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am using this line on my index.rhtml page to capture the quantity required of a particular item for a basic shopping cart app: <%= text_field ''line_item'', ''quantity'', {:size=>3} %> </td> but my next screen (a cart screen) doesn''t reflect what was entered in that text field when the item is added to the cart. That is,

Seems the only issues I ever have with Rails are these bizarre fiddly little things that make no sense. Can''t for the life of me understand why I''m getting undefined method on form_for in a view? And it''s actually part of the acts_as_authenticated plugin that''s doing it. But how can it not know about form_for? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve successfully gotten acts_as_authenticated working. Currently the before_filter line for my admin screen is like this: class AdminController < ApplicationController include AuthenticatedSystem before_filter :login_required Only issue I have now is that anyone logged in can access that screen.

I wanted to add a mash up to my website and was wondering if there were any recommendations? I saw that there is a cartographer plugin (http://cartographer.rubyforge.org/) and also something else called YM4R (http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/YM4R). I have no idea if they are up to date or not or whether this is currently the easiest/best way to go about it short of rolling your own.

In my database I have a products table that has a bunch of attributes (title, description, etc) including one for date_expires. Is there a best practices method to get the database to erase the expired items? Is that done outside RoR via Cron or something? Else is it better to just have my app filter out anything that is expired but still keep those records in my dbase? -- Posted via

I have a webserver that''s happily running apache2 and PHP. I''d like to deploy a site that I wrote using RoR on that same server but read that there might be some conflicts with PHP and RoR trying to access the same MySQL database. How real are those conflicts? Could I mess up my running PHP site if I install mod_ruby and try to use Apache2? Would I be better off

I have a primary layout that I''m using in several controllers. On my sidebar I have a link that I set up as follows: <div id="sidebar"> <%= link_to("Items", :action => "list") %> </div> Everything is ok when I call it from my primary controller, but since I am also calling the layout from a second controller that does

Hi all, With the latest 1.8.6 release out today, I was wondering - what would you all think of a Windows-only fork of Ruby? I mean Perl has ActiveState, right? It ships with a slightly different interpreter and different libraries, so why not Ruby? Here''s what I''m thinking: * Win2k or later. No 95/98/ME support. No cygwin/mingw, either. * Assume VC++ 8. Use whatever

Hi, I''ve got AAA loaded and working. I now want to put a smarter login form on the sidebar of my site. If the user is not logged in, I''d like to display a typical form in the sidebar that collects the user ID/password and allows the user to login.

Hi All I am using version 0.3.13.3 and since there is no logging support for win32 application. I was wondering if it was possible to get any kind of logging at all.

Hi all, i installed Act_as_Authenticated plugin yesterday, everything seems fine: trying out the index, divert me to the login screen, i register and login. but when i try http://localhost:3000/account/logout, it didn''t work, after the action been executed, it takes me back to the index as i m logged in. i try to clean the localhost cookie from my firefox, and delete those files in the

I am using the acts_as_authenticated plugin to manage logging in/logging out. There are a few controllers, such as search, that I don''t mind people accessing regardless of whether they are logged in or logged out. My current view just has some static links on the left that say Login and Logout. How should I set it up so that it says Login when not logged in and log out when logged

My layout calls a few links like so: <%= link_to ''| Home '', :controller => ''search'', :action => ''''%> <%= link_to ''| Search '', :controller => ''search'', :action => ''''%> I would also like to display two values from my user table in the same layout right after the

Hi folks, I''ve got an older project I''ve used LoginGenerator for. It works pretty well, but lacks password resetting, etc. Now I''ve got a new project for a client that''s going to need login capabilities as well. I''ve been looking at the Salted Login Generator and the Login Engine, and have taken quick stabs at running through the installation
