Hi Guillaume, First thing if you want to modify the title on your product after getting it with @product = Product.find(params[:id]) you cant do "Product.title = "You don't decide the title! I do!"" as "Product" refers to your class and not to the object. You must refer the object that way:
@product = Product.find(params[:id]) # Getting the product @product.title = "You don't decide the title! I do!" # Updating title @product.save # Saving object in database Another thing, if you have a undefined method `title=' for #<Class: 0x365b654> error, it seems that your Product class don't have a title attribute. Check in the database that your Product table has a title attribute before trying to update it ^^ Cheers, Olivier.
