If I add a new comment to a post and save, the counter gets incremented, but if I delete an individual comment, the counter is not touched. Is this not provided automatically, or do I have to roll me own decr...

Hi ! I'm currently working on a Rails app which stores plain clear passwords (...). So I'm migrating to Authlogic authentication with a 'standard' SHA512 encryption.

How could I disable or configure the HoptoadNotifier per controller? Background is that I configured the notifier to report "Method not allowed" exception, eg this is raised when an action is accessed with GET instead of POST. But I have an autocomplete controller which is scanned by bots (probably to find exploits) by sending GET reque...

The trick is how do I write the has_many association on the User model so that it returns fights where user_id = challenger_id or challengee_id? ...
Hi! I want to reformat some helpers in my Rails views. I want to archieve a syntax similar to: <%= box :option => 'value' do |b| b.header "Header of box #1" %> Content of Box#1 <% end %> The b.header call is optional. How would I structure my code to allow this? I guess it's something similar to fields_for in Rails. Tha...
I'd like to read the Rails 3 source code on printed paper (and preferably in color). For example, xv6 (http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/2009/xv6-book/index.html) did a nice job printing their code (http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.828/2009/src/xv6.pdf). It even has line numbers and an index. The only thing I would like to add is syntax highli...

I've been developing Rails apps now for about a year and am starting on a new project (that's actually 3 projects). I'd like to write some gems that can be shared amongst these projects to maintain a common code-base. They'll likely eventually evolve into Rails engines at some point, but to start, just common libraries that can be incl...
