LoginEngine File_column interop

Hello all,

I hope someone can help me with this issue, I have the SVN
file_column and using LoginEngine/UserEngine with Rails 1.1.2. My
issue is that I’m overloading the view for LoginEngine to support a
file image upload as part of the user record and having a heck of a
time doing so.

Near the bottom of my new _edit.rhtml file I put in:

<%= file_field("user", "image_url") %>

which now displays the upload field as it should when I go to sign up
a user. I placed in the actual LoginEngine user.rb model the
“file_column :image_url” line just below " include
LoginEngine::AuthenticatedUser" and I can see when I submit my form
that some directory structure is created.

The last part I did was make a new signup.rhtml file with this as the
start of my form:

<%= start_form_tag({:action => 'signup'}, :multipart => true) %>

This was to make sure the form was a multipart form for the upload.

The issue is that if I select a file for upload the form doesn’t
submit, and no file was created. The form does submit if I have no
file set to upload. :frowning:

Any ideas on what else I need to do to get this all to play nice with
each other?

Ps: The reason I added the “file_column :image_url” right into the
LoginEngine user model instead of overloading it is that when I tried
to overload it the rest of my app started to have issues everywhere I
had “authenticated?” so I felt it just easier not to fight it and
add the info right into LoginEngine itself, which on the surface
appears to have taken.

When using file_column, the form helper you want to use is
file_column_field, not file_field.
