Question

I am building my first admin section in Rails and I am struggling with routing problems.
My routes.rb looks like this:

  get "admin/menuh"
  get 'admin/welcome'
  namespace :admin do
    resources :users
    resources :menuh
    resources :menuv
    resources :welcome
  end

And my views structure looks like views/admin/users/files. If I will set to url address of browser the url localhost:3000/admin/users/new, so I will get the error message No route matches {:controller=>”users”} (it’s in the file views/admin/users/_form.html.erb – this file is generated by scaffold)… so I would like to ask you – where is the problem? Is here anything important, what I am disregarding?

Answer 1

You’ve set up your form_for like this, I reckon:

<%= form_for @user do |f| %>

Because the route is in a namespace, you need to tell the form that also:

<%= form_for [:admin, @user] do |f| %>

That should help you fix that issue.
