Question

I am working in rails project. I created a header and footer and added to all pages in layouts/application.html.erb file. Now I want to remove it from some pages. how can I do that?

Answer 1

Controllers support :only and :except options for layouts, see the Conditional layouts section in this guide.

So you can do the following in your controller:

class SomeController < ApplicationController
  layout 'application', :except => [:some_action, :some_other_action]
