To implement what you have asked for, one approach is:
1) In your Book model, define a named scope such as:
named_scope :viewable, :conditions=>"sold=1"
2) Then in your Books_controller add this method if it isn't there already:
def index
finder = Book.all
if current_user.guest?
finder = finder.viewable
end
hobo_index finder
end
you could also write the function this way(below), but, I find the top one
more readable
def index
finder = Book.all
finder = finder.viewable if current_user.guest?
hobo_index finder
end
