Hi Colin, What I don't know how to do is the nested form, and the new and created methods in the controller for this specific association. I have tried the relationship on the rails console and it works fine.
I actually have done the rails tutorial and had a good look through stackoverflow, but i still can't get my head around this one. Appreciate your help!
