Question

all!
Maybe someone knows why this:

def index_link(object, content = t("#{object.to_s.pluralize}.index"))
  #link_to(content, {:controller=>object.to_s.pluralize}, :scope=>"") if can?(:read, p(object)) #this doesn't work too
  link_to(content, :controller=>"trademarks")
  #link_to(content, trademarks_path) #this do work, but I need to set path from object
end

makes an exception like this:

No route matches {:controller=>"devise/trademarks"}

stack:

actionpack (3.0.3) lib/action_view/template.rb:135:in `render'

and how to make it work?

Answer 1

You have to add a slash to the path.
For example:

<li><%= link_to "Events" , :controller => "/events", :action => "index" %></li>
