I have a rails plugin written in v 2.1.1. When I install it in a 2.2.2 app, it breaks the app. I'm unable to use polymorphic routes so something like <%= link_to @object %> Doesn't work, because it says: ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method 'polymorphic_path' for #<ActionView::Base:0x1a95c1c>) If I script/plugin remove th...
