Hello,

I have been looking for documentation for acts\_as\_versioned\_association  
and can’t really find any. I have acts\_as\_versioned\_working properly but  
want to change to acts\_as\_versioned\_association. Do I need to create a  
3rd table to use as a reference or is it all done behind the scenes and  
all I need to do is add the plug-in and:

acts\_as\_versioned  
acts\_as\_versioned\_association : Reference  
acts\_as\_versioned\_association : Reference

I tried to just add the above and can’t get it to work. Does anyone know  
what I am missing or know where I can find more documentation about it?

Thanks for the help.
