Question

I have an application where users created ‘boards’

I have had to change the name of the website and now users create ‘walls’.

Currently I have the following url’s:

   http://mysite.com/boards
   http://mysite.com/boards/i/edit

Is there a way to alias the name ‘boards’ to ‘walls’ so my URL’s will be as follows:

http://mysite.com/walls
http://mysite.com/walls/1/edit

etc without having to change the name of the table, models, and code?

routes.rb

resources :boards

I would also like to alias the paths if possible:

new_board_path would still be valid even if resources are written as follows:

resources :walls, :controller => :boards

Thanks

Try this:

resources :walls, :controller => :boards
