Thanks. That fixed the error. However I get a new error:

Showing messages/index.html.erb where line #3 raised:

inbox_user_messages_url failed to generate from {:controller=>”messages”, :action=>”inbox”} - you may have ambiguous routes, or you may need to supply additional parameters for this route. content_url has the following required parameters: [”users”, :user_id, “messages”, “inbox”] - are they all satisfied?

I am logged in, but there is no messages yet. Routes has been added as you instructed in your documentation. Any ideas?

@Asbjørn Morell - the login_required method is part of restful_authentication. It iwould be in lib/authenticated_system.rb if you ran the RA generator. Have you added “include AuthenticatedSystem” in your Application controller? Otherwise, the the REZM controller won’t know about it.

Helllo,

I got the latest version of restful-authentication running with Ruby on rails 2.1. When I try to open a message I get this error: (/messages/inbox)

NameError in MessagesController#index
undefined local variable or method `login_required’ for #
RAILS_ROOT: /home/ilikeyou/www

Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace
lib/restful_easy_messages_controller_system.rb:15:in `rezm_login_required’
/usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails:19:in `load’
/usr/local/bin/mongrel_rails:19

Had to rename restful-authentication to restful_authentication to get it working. Some bug about the naming. It is listed on the rest_auth git webpage.

Any ideas?

Hi Sam,

any news on the new routes ? It’s been a while, I hope you will continue to improve the plugin

Cheers,

@Bill, the method ‘rezm_menu’ is in helpers/messages_helper.rb so you’ll need include that helper in the controller that calls your partial. Just put ‘include MessagessHelper’ at the top of your controller. Like so…

class MyController < ApplicationController
include MessagessHelper
# The rest of your class
#
#
end

Nice plugin. I had started working on the same thing and had it about 70% complete when a fired pointed this plugin out to me. Looks almost exactly like what I was doing already so it fit in nicely. Two things though, I have a login and an email for the user. You had the assumption that the email was the login. No big deal though. The other item was how would I move this into a parital? I was going to have a landing page for the user that had among other things, the view of their mailbox. When I moved the code into the partial though, I got undefined local variable or method `rezm_menu’. I’m new to rails so may have missed something easy. Have you tried to do something like this yet and if so could you give me a hint? Thanks again for the plugin.

thanks sam. I was thinking, since I’m in a bind, i’d just hack act_as_emailable, similar to how you’ve done, but leverage your hard work, but leaving the controller as email (or whatever they have)?

The plugin looks great, i just wish i didn’t use the word messages already in my controller and models.

Live and learn.

@Nerb, rightnow you can’t choose the name of the messages model. I’m working on the next version which will allow you to generate your own model name.
