You could do this with a param in the url… possibly MD5 the customer email. Then you can call some method to check it. Something like
= render "your_form" if portfolio_customer?(params[:customer]) #then in the model. def portfolio_customer?(customer_key) customer_key == Digest::MD5.hexdigest(portfolio.customer_email) end Matt On Jan 23, 2014, at 5:18 PM, Stefanos I. <[email protected]> wrote: > First of all sorry for the confusing title.
