Hello there, I am new around here and have been looking over the internet for a solution but can't find one. I am fair new to rails but have a decent understanding of it to get by and a few years experience behind me. My problem is that I try to insert data in a database and it does not come up. The information the user types is inserted however I wish to insert the ID and other stuff the user can not change. This is what I have so far:
The controller:
def create @postform = new(params[:postform])
What is this and what do you expect from it? Do you have a "new" method that takes one argument in your controller class? Also, the "new" method of a controller simply renders a blank form to the browser so that the user can fill it out.
Error:
ArgumentError in PostsController#create
wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)
Typically a controller contains a new method (action) that takes 0 arguments, hence the above error.
@post = Post.new(:title => @postform.title, :body => @postform.body, :user_id => session[:user_id]).save
P.S. Consider this instead:
@post = Post.create(:title => @postform.title, :body => @postform.body, :user_id => session[:user_id])
