I'd also recommend the Railscast on this topic: http://railscasts.com/episodes/196-nested-model-form-revised
Some other general notes on your Gist: * has_many associations should be plural. Things will usually work with them named otherwise, but you may encounter odd behavior. * the data model doesn't seem quite right - custom_field_infos should have a contact_id column and a custom_field_id column (to indicate which contact & field this record has data for). It shouldn't need a user_id column unless there's something else going on that's not mentioned in the Gist. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
