Hello,

I created a forum in RoR using the acts\_as\_threaded plugin for the  
Esperanto social networking site [www.amikumu.com](http://www.amikumu.com). After the recent  
update to the latest version of RoR, adding new posts to the forum is  
no longer possible. It seems that the acts\_as\_threaded plugin is no  
longer called, so that fields like “depth” or “left” for forum posts  
remain empty and cause the error. I did not make any changes to the  
plugin or RoR except that update.

How can I get RoR to make use of that plugin again? Simply re-  
installing the plugin won’t work as it is no longer in the plugin  
repository and I can only find the files as an archive - but I didn’t  
make any changes to the files.

Thanks for your help!

Judith
