Override .find, .find_by_id, etc

Rails
1

I read these:
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/185297#new
http://www.freezzo.com/2008/05/14/override-default-find-conditions-for-model/

it works, it override the .find perfectly, however it does not cover
.find_by_id or other .find_by_XXX

Is there anyway to override all the find function of a modal? I want to
set the default “select” for User modal, only return name and id, but
not the password by default.

Thanks

default_scope ?

The methods linked above should also work in recent versions of rails

  • find_by_xxx used to call find_every/find_initial directly but now
    calls find.
