Before I dig in any further (since I have no idea where to go from here...)

Has anyone been succcessful with 2.3.2, AS, and nested scaffolds?

I have the latest of AS and the render_component plugin via % script/plugin install --force git://github.com/lackac/render_component.git -r rails-edge

I have an AS user_controller:

  active_scaffold :user do |config|    ...     config.nested.add_link("Portfolios",[:portfolios])   end

But when I click on the Portfolios link I get:

ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method `format_column' for #<ActionView::Base:0xb67cee38>) on line #28 of vendor/plugins/ active_scaffold/frontends/default/views/_nested.rhtml:

format_column is defined in: .../vendor/plugins/active_scaffold/lib/helpers/list_column_helpers.rb

which is included via: .../vendor/plugins/active_scaffold/lib/helpers/view_helpers.rb

which is included via: .../vendor/plugins/active_scaffold/environment.rb

which is included via: .../vendor/plugins/active_scaffold/init.rb

so I don't understand why it's not defined when needed.

Any pointers/ideas will be much appreciated. This worked fine in 2.2.2.

Thanks,

Problem was that I had installed the newest AS on top of an earlier version, so .../frontend/default/views contained *.html.erb and *.rhtml files.

The latter ones were being picked up instead of the former.

I deleted AS and did a fresh install and all is good.
