Is there a count_by_content alternative to the find_by_content action? This is because I''m wanting to do the following in my pagination method: def list # step 1: set the variables you''ll need page = (params[:page] ||= 1).to_i items_per_page = 20 offset = (page - 1) * items_per_page # step 2: instead of performing a find, just get a count item_count =

i''ve figured out how to use the next and previous links with the paginator class but now i''m trying to figure out how to display all the page numbers in between. looking through the rails api, i found paginator.each() but i''m not sure how to use it, or if that''s even what i am looking for. also, is there a way to limit the amount of pages like some sites

Hi there, I''ve been trying to paginate over a list of members that all share a tag in common using the acts_as_taggable plugin. The regular way of paginating over a collection doesn''t seem to work with acts_as_taggable. Here''s what my method looks like that takes in a tag name, finds all the members that share the tag and then displays all the members. Nothing too fancy

Hi all, Is there a way to create pagination with a complex SQL, more complex than the :conditions option will support? I have two databases, houses and images.

So far I''m

I have a little web app where we need to paginate collections of items. I''m trying to sort the collection and then pass it, sorted, to a Paginator, and still be able to paginate through the collection, across several pages, with the new sort order. The only thing I''m doing differently from the regular scaffolding approach is this: @order_pages = Paginator.new(self,

I am trying to paginate objects from a has_many/:through relationship using Paginator. current_user.things returns the objects that I''d like to paginate.

I initialise the paginator as follows: @thing_pages = Paginator.new(self, current_user.things.count, 1, @params[''page'']) I don''t know how to obtain

There must be a better way to write this code: @project_pages, @projects= paginate :project, :per_page => 10, :conditions => ["account_id = ?", account] ?! If only I could pass the sub-collection account = ... @projects = account.project to paginate, instead of letting it extract it with a find :all + sql conditions Alain. -- Posted via

Hi there everyone, I''ve recently moved to RoR and am still struggling with the basics of what used to be second nature in php, so on with my question: I have a database with products, and I need to create a search form that paginates the results. What I have so far in my controller is: def list # If the values are nil, then set them, otherwise wrap them in % # Also,

I have my list view filtering rows shown within the table <tr> tags like most of the introductory tutorials do. As I''m adding a few dozen entries I''m noticing the standard scaffolding pagination doesn''t pick up the number of rows from the filter since it is not being passed the number of rows returned within the scope of the filter statement. >From a

Hi everyone, I''m at the end of my rope on this. I can''t get pagination to work with anything but a standard find on a model. If I try to do a search and customize the pagination, I get lots of different variations. My thought was to have the list action do what it does, but to pass it a list of search conditions from the search action. So, if search determines that we need

I''ve created a class method in my model called find_filtered. The intent is that I take various params that the user has submitted, and let the model build the query and return the AR collection, which is exactly what happens. However, now I''d like to paginate the recordset. Everything I''ve been able to find about pagination presumes that you have no pre-existing AR

Is there a quick and easy way to paginate something like @member.items (Member with has_many :items)? Right now I do in the controller: @item_pages, @member_items = paginate :item, :conditions=>["member_id=?", @member.id], :per_page=>25, :order=>''datetime desc'' It''d be more DRY if this was possible: @item_pages, @member_items = paginate

I''m just wondering where I would put the pagination for search results when using "acts_as_ferret".
