Hello Friends !

from my script/console

I am getting channel blog feature as below

Channel.find(:first).blog

=> #<Blog id: 1, activated_at: nil, state: true, channel_id: 1, feature_id: 1, created_at: “2009-05-18 13:00:51”, updated_at: “2009-05-18 13:00:51”>

but i wanted to do something like

Channel.find(:first)[“blog”]

=> nil

and it should return blog object, but it is not the case…

anyone have any idea on this ???

Thanks ,

Sandip R~
