Just as you say. Nothing special about requesting data from lots of different or unrelated models for such usage.
In the controller get the data like: @new_users = User.find(:all, :conditions => *whatever means new*) @new_news = News.find(:all, :conditions => ...) In the view it's a matter of taste if you write a different partial for each box or not. I would most likely do it, or reuse some other partials for displaying users or new, that are already written. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
