Question

In my rails app I have user, school, and course models. I have set up a polymorphic association so that users and schools have many courses as hostable, and the course belongs_to hostable. My routes look like this:

  resources :users do
    resources :courses
  end

 resources :schools do
   resources :courses 
 end

The show in my school controller looks like this:

def show
  @school = School.find(params[:id])
  @user = current_user.schools.find_by_user_id(params[:user_id])
  @title = @school.school_name
  @hostable = @school
  @courses = @hostable.courses
  @course = Course.new
end

The courses partial that renders in the school and user show page looks like this:

<div id="courses">
 <% @courses.each do |course| %>
  <div class="course">
<%= simple_format course.title %>
    <%= simple_format course.description %>
  </div>
 <% end %>
</div>

Right now I only have the school view configured to simply list the course title and description. What I want to do is list all of the school’s courses on the school’s show page, and instead of only showing the text of the course title, I want the course title to be a link which re-directs to the course’s page. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

<%= link_to course.title, school_course_path(@hostable, course) %>
