I'm not using activescaffold generally, but I'm developing new resources
with activescaffold. What i'm going to do here is essentially override the
actions column with my own, in which I have a helper as such :
module ThingsControllerHelper
def actions_column(record)
links = []
links << link_to("New Comment", new_thing_comments_path(record))
return links.join("\n")
end
end
What I gave you earlier was a very simplified example of a very complicated
problem for me, as i have a pretty involved routes file. Thanks for taking
a look though :)
