I partly agree with that... Helpers are made for views indeed, but who's ever been doing a controller without any URL helper? That's maybe why my overridden ones aren't in my controllers, maybe they're not Helpers as other view helpers? I'll try to figure that out... Another thing now... I'm using acts_as_commentable and I have a comments controller that can create a comment and associate it to any commendable model. I'm using polymorphic_path to redirect to the model show page once the comment is added. How can I still do this with a nested route, which will require owner plus model's id, when any other model pah would just require the model's id?! (that's why I came to the override at first) Thanks again!
