Hi Guys,

recently started on rails. Currently trying to get images to load on
page
but the images are not loading, instead it just shows a white space
wherever i slot in images in my html code

Here are some of the code i have entered into my view/pages/home/html
file

but my images are not showing. anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance !

You can place the images in the assets\images folder and use image_tag
in
rails to generate the markup

This is the API Page for image_tag
http://apidock.com/rails/ActionView/Helpers/AssetTagHelper/image_tag

Thanks,

Yes you just need to move them. The best way to learn Rails from scratch
is this beginner tutorial by Michael H… He covers all aspects step
by
step in a very easy to understand way

Thank you so much Ganesh ! Just one question I have currently written
this
to call the image

However it is still not loading, do you happen to know why ?

Thanks again

<image_tag(“Happy_smiley_face”)>

Try this with the file extension (e.g. Happy_smiley_face.jpg) Also the
file should be in images folder and the casing should match if you are
running on Mac/Linux

<image_tag(“SAVEonSHIRTS_website_homepage_01.png”)>

Do you have any thoughts ?

Please work through a tutorial on Rails so you have some basic
knowledge of how views/ERB work.

Hint: there’s a major difference between
"<image_tag " and
"<%= image_tag "

Good luck.

Hey Ganesh,

Sorry Ive been trying to use your method,

This is the code I have, However the images are still not showing

I have made sure that all the image names are the same already and that
they are stored in the images file in the assets file.

Do you have any thoughts ?
