Hi, I would like to change the default routing system. I have a city model and instead of have :model/:controller/:id I would like to change it to :model/:controller/:name.
How do I do this in the routes.rb? I have this message "Couldn't find City without an ID"
Greg
Greg,
If you changed your default route to :model/:controller/:name then there's no place to pass an ID parameter to your controller, hence the error message. Best practice would be to map.resources (if you are using RESTful controllers, which is also good practice).
