I am trying to create a landing page for an event for people to visit to see the events details. I have created the view, added a route to the event resources and made changes to the controller but something has been done incorrectly.
Here is my code:
routes.rb:
resources :events do
resources :guests
match '/landing_page', to:'events#landing_page', as: :landing_page, :via =>[:get, :post]
# resources :guestlists
end
event_controller:
def landing_page
@event = Event.find(params[:id])
end
When I open the landing page i get the following error:
"ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound (Couldn't find Event without an ID):"
In case anyone else runs into this, I wanted to document Sergio's last comment here which I believe leads to the outcome I think most people will be looking for. Nesting this inside of a member block should get you an ideal outcome:
Running
rake routesshould now show/events/:id/landing_page(.:format)so you can use the same method you use in your show method that just asks forparams[:id].I was wracking my brain for a while on this as rails resources seem to be dwindling on the interwebs.
