To summarize: In my rails 2.3.8 app, which uses restful_authentication, all
model error messages (and there are a lot) work exactly as desired except
for the scenario where a new user is signing up for the first time.
Unfortunately this leaves potential new users with a really bad impression.
For example, if the new user fails to enter a matching password - password
confirmation, or makes any other entry error (no password, no login, etc),
the message is like the following:
1 error prohibited this user from being saved
There were problems with the following fields
- {{attribute}} {{message}}
The {{attribute}}{{message}} isn't translated. And yes I know to use %{} and
not {{}} in en.yml. Clearly there is something I am doing wrong but I've
exhausted my ideas. Last I tried was as follows, which is an excerpt from
by_password.rb:
module Authentication
module ByPassword
# Stuff directives into including module
def self.included(recipient)
recipient.extend(ModelClassMethods)
recipient.class_eval do
include ModelInstanceMethods
# Virtual attribute for the unencrypted password
attr_accessor :password
validates_presence_of :password,
:message=>I18n.t(:passwordpresent), :if => :password_required?
validates_presence_of :password_confirmation,
:message=>I18n.t(:confirmation), :if => :password_required?
validates_confirmation_of :password,
:message=>I18n.t(:confirmation), :if => :password_required?
validates_length_of :password, :within => 6..40,
:message=>I18n.t(:passwordlength), :if => :password_required?
before_save :encrypt_password
end
end # #included directives
# Note the addition of i18n.t() calls.
thanks
