Question

I am currently using the closure_tree gem to model tagging on my rails application. In my new tag view I have a field where the user can enter a parent tag for the tag that is to be created. After saving the new tag, editing the tag will display the parent field as #. How can I display the parent tag’s name in the field instead?

Answer 1

Turns out I just needed a to_s function for my model and things displayed correctly.

def to_s
  self.name
end
