Getting parent record

Rails
1

Hello all,

I’ve got a model - Property which belongs_to Seller. In my
controller, I have a variable @property which is a Property record -
@property = Property.find_by_permalink(params[:id])

I’m now trying to get the seller fields - if I do a <%=
@property.seller.id %> I get the following -

Called id for nil, which would mistakenly be 4 – if you really
wanted the id of nil, use object_id

Extracted source (around line #4):

1:


2:

<%= @property.property_profile.title %>


3:

<%= @property.property_profile.description %>


4: <%= @property.seller.id %>
5: <% for image in @property.property_images %>
6: <%= image_tag url_for_file_column(image, “filename”, “medium”) %>
7: <% end %>

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Alastair

Well, I appreciate the fact that you are changing the list provider so
the service will be better.

I also appreciate much the fact that you are getting sepparate lists for
sepparate issues. I specially appreciate to see that the project is
alive and learning lessons from recent experiences, as I can see from
you creating the security list for better spreading the word when
necessary.

Considering everything I’m receiving from you -totally for free and just
for the sake of spreading the knowledge- and comparing it again the
small inconvenience of not being foretold that the list was moving, my
balance falls on the side of being thankful to the team. And after
seeing what’s going on today I was thinking it would be nice to let you
know.

THANKS!

p.s. yeah, maybe there was a better way of migrating but… life is not
perfect after all. I’m sure some lessons will be learnt from this
experience too and next time the movement will be smoother. Surely after
some tweaking the list will be as good as ever.At the end of the day
what counts for me is that we have an excellent tool for sharing the
wisdom throughout the community.
