Question

I really don’t know why this doesn’t work. It seems so simple.

The current user just wont update it’s :active_lesson_page attribute when calling update_active_lesson_page(lesson_page) on the current_user.

Lesson Controller

current_user.update_active_lesson_page(lesson_page)

User model

def update_active_lesson_page(lesson_page)
  active_lesson_page = lesson_page.id
  save
end

Thanks for helping out!

Answer 1

How you realize that it should works?

here you define local variable

active_les.. = 

then you save model with no changes

Try one of this:

update_attribute :your_attribute, 'new_value'

or

self.your_attribute = 'new_value'

save
