I have a Post model which has_many :photos. While User creating a new
post,
user should be also able to select photos (multiple) for given post.
I am using RAILS 3.2.9, nested_form, carrierwave and
jquery-fileupload-rails gem and ryan bates
railscastshttp://railscasts.com/episodes/381-jquery-file-upload as
a guide.
All seems to be set up correctly, but problem is, when User choose a
photo
(a fileupload() function is triggered), new Post and new Photo record
are
created. Once I press “create post” another post record is again
created. Any
help/idea how to get rid off with the first Post record once user select
the photo?
Thank you very much.
