Thanks for the advice, follow up questions: I'm using Devise for authentication. I think this means the controller inside the Devise gem handles user model editing.
So, how does one add Topics as a nested resource for Users? I understand this normally requires three things: a) nested partial form for creating topics owned by users added into the users edit form, b) @user.build_topic added into the Users controller edit action, c) accepts_nested_attributes_for :topics added into User model. So basically two questions: -is it standard practice to have to modify the gem like this (in the Devise controller)? is there a less intrusive way? -Are the steps that I required necessary & sufficient? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
