Question

What basic settings are required to make sure routing url name helpers work?

For instance in my route I have the following:

Blog::Application.routes.draw do
  resources :news, :as => :news_items, :controller => :news_items, :only => [:show, :index]

  scope :module => "refinery" do
    scope(:path => 'refinery', :as => 'admin', :module => 'Admin') do
      resources :news, :except => :show, :as => :news_items, :controller => :news_items
    end
  end
end

but the following doesn’t seem to work:

new_refinery_news_url

I keep on getting the error

undefined local variable or method `new_refinery_news_url’

So I’m pretty sure something is missing in the way I have configured my application, who’s main routing is in the RefineryCMS gem which was added in the Gemfile.

Any thoughts?

Answer 1

Had to use main_app.new_refinery_news_url instead.
