I dont understand why you want to validate uniqueness only on create. Isnt it a problem if email is changed later to an address that already exists?
The :on parameter is not available for validates_uniqueness_of, probably because it doesnt make any sense. If you really want to make the validation happen only on create you can do before_validation_on_create :check_duplication -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
