Forum: Ruby on Rails what;s the right url in this case

Hello,

I have this models

class Berichten < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :bericht, :user
  belongs_to :user
  belongs_to :Category
end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :email, :name
  has_many :berichten
end

class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :id :name
  has_many :berichten
end

What I wonder is what the right url is when I want to place a new 
bericht
into a specific category.
Is it localhost:3000/<categoryname>/bericht/new ?

"Category" there should not be capitalized

Why don't you run `rake routes` and see the URLs that have been
automatically defined by your relationships? You might also want to
read the comments in config/routes.rb about "nested resources".

It depends on how you setup your resource and how you setup your
controller.  The model does not interact with the view and the view
should not interact with the model directly under any circumstance,
the controller hits up the model and then setups the view.

Since you only showed us your model's and not your controllers we have
no idea how you have it setup, though you can read more about routing
here: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html#crud-ve...

The controllers looks now like this :

class BerichtenController < ApplicationController
  def new
  end
  def index
  @berichten = Berichten.all
  end
  def delete
  end
  def show
  end
end
class

And the other controller:

lass UsersController < ApplicationController
  def new
  end
  def index
   @user = User.all
  end
  def delete
  end
  def show
  end
end

My routes.rb

Tamara::Application.routes.draw do
  resources "berichten"
  resources  "users"
  resources category
end

Try to run rake routes to see all the routes of your current
