Do not call my_model.record_timestamps = false unless you want to turn
this behavior off system-wide.

Interesting. What you want should certainly be possible.

This is what I found in the documentation
(http://caboo.se/doc/classes/ActiveRecord/Timestamp.html):

{snip}
Keep in mind that, via inheritance, you can turn off timestamps on a
per model basis by setting record_timestamps to false in the desired
models.

  class Feed < ActiveRecord::Base
    self.record_timestamps = false
    # ...
  end
{snip}

Try doing this and see if it helps (on your development box :slight_smile:

I'm not sure why doing "self." would be different from what you did,
though...?

The best coverage of that topic that I've seen so far has been in Ruby
for Rails.

What ended up working for me was this:

class Weird < ActiveRecord::Base
  def self.record_timestamps; false; end
end

Hope it helps,
