Comments section from Ruby on Rails blog tutorial is not rendering - ruby-on-rails

I went through the entirety of the Ruby on Rails tutorial for the blog application here. In this blogging application there are 2 models articles and comments. Comments belong to the articles model. However, the problem that I seem to be having is that my comments do not seem to be showing up in my show view from my article_controller.rb but everything else seems to be. I am still pretty new to rails but does anything stick out from the files shown below?
show.html.erb
<h1><%= #article.title %></h1>
<p><%= #article.body %></p>
<ul>
<li><%= link_to "Edit", edit_article_path(#article) %></li>
<li><%= link_to "Destroy", article_path(#article),
method: :delete,
data: { confirm: "Are you sure?" } %></li>
</ul>
<h2>Comments</h2>
<%= render #article.comments %>
<h2>Add a comment:</h2>
<%= render 'comments/form' %>
_comment.html.erb
<p>
<strong>Commenter:</strong>
<%= comment.commenter %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Comment:</strong>
<%= comment.body %>
</p>
<p>
<%= link_to 'Destroy Comment', [comment.article, comment],
method: :delete,
data: { confirm: "Are you sure?" } %>
</p>
_form.html.erb
<%= form_with model: [ #article, #article.comments.build ] do |form| %>
<p>
<%= form.label :commenter %><br>
<%= form.text_field :commenter %>
</p>
<p>
<%= form.label :body %><br>
<%= form.text_area :body %>
</p>
<p>
<%= form.label :status %><br>
<%= form.select :status, ['public', 'private', 'archived'], selected: 'public' %>
</p>
<p>
<%= form.submit %>
</p>
<% end %>
comment.rb
class Comment < ApplicationRecord
include Visible
belongs_to :article
end
visible.rb
module Visible
extend ActiveSupport::Concern
VALID_STATUSES = ['public', 'private', 'archived']
included do
validates :status, inclusion: { in: VALID_STATUSES }
end
class_methods do
def public_count
where(status: 'public').count
end
end
def archived?
status == 'archived'
end
end
Thank you in advance for any help.

You've got this line in show.html.erb.
<%= render 'comments/form' %>
According to your filenames it should be:
<%= render 'comment' %>

Okay I figured it out, I forgot the :status part of this line params.require(:comment).permit(:commenter, :body, :status).

how to Edit a post in rails and display said post in the text_field

I am trying to build a page that will host the content of the post from the psql data base and allow user to edit the content of that post inside the text field
I am getting a no method error however message is the correct column in database
any help is very appreciated
<h1>Edit message</h1>
<%= form_with(modle: #post, local: true) do |form| %>
<p>
<%= form.label :message %><br>
<%= form.text_field :message, :value => form.message %>
</p>
<p>
<%= form.submit %>
</p>
<%end%>
<%= link_to 'Back', posts_url %>
<h1>Posts shown below</h1>
<p>To add a new post click link:
<%= link_to new_post_path do %>
New post
<% end %>
</p>
<p>---------------------------------------------</p>
<% #posts.reverse_each do |post| %>
<div id = "<%=post.id %>">
<p><%= post.message %></p>
<p><%= post.created_at.strftime(" Posted at %a %I:%M%p") %></p>
<p><%= link_to 'Destroy', post, :confirm => 'Are you sure?',
:method => :delete %></td>
<p> <%= link_to 'Update', edit_post_path(post) %> </p>
<p>---------------------------------------------</p>
</div>
<% end %>
It should be form.object.message, make changes in this line
<%= form.text_field :message, :value => form.object.message %>
or as max said, just remove the value option all together, it will still work
<%= form.text_field :message %>
Give it a try!
<h1>Edit message</h1>
<%= form_with(model: #post, local: true) do |form| %>
<p>
<%= form.label :message %><br>
<%= form.text_field :message, :value => Post.find(params[:id]).message %>
</p>
<p>
<%= form.submit %>
</p>
<%end%>
<%= link_to 'Back', posts_path %>

I don't suggest you using hidden fields for this purpose.
You should pass student together with mark into form_for helper and rails will generate proper url for you which will look like: /students/:student_id/marks
In this case it will be possible to extract student_id from params in your action later.
form_for [#student, #mark], html: {multipart: true} do |f|

UPDATE:
Forgot to mention that in order to make this work you need to pass student instance into your template at new action:
def new
#student = Student.find(params[:student_id])
#mark = #student.marks.build
end

Gem dragonfly. How to make the list of current files on edit view?

I have model Project and in model have field documents(files). I am using gem dragonfly. When editing a project, how to make the list of current files? At this time on the edit page the list of files fields show: "The file is not selected". I do next: ​
projects_controller:
def edit
end
def update
if #project.update(project_params)
redirect_to #project
else
render :edit
end
end
private
def set_project
#project = Project.find(params[:id])
end
def set_payment_types
#payment_types = PaymentOption.all
end
def project_params
params.require(:project).permit(:title, :description, :price, :location,
:anonymity, :price_category, :category_id, :skill_list, documents_attributes: [:attachment], payment_option_ids: [])
end
edit.html.erb:
<%= form_for #project do |f| %>
<p>
<%= f.label 'Name' %>
<%= f.text_field :title %>
</p>
<P>
<%= f.label 'Budget' %>
<%= f.text_field :price %>
für
<%= f.select :price_category, Project::PRICE_CATEGORIES %>
</P>
<p>
<%= f.label 'Description' %>
<%= f.text_area :description %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.label 'Category' %>
<%= f.collection_select :category_id, Category.all, :id, :name %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.label 'Skills Freelancer (15 pieces) *' %>
<%= f.text_field :skill_list %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.label 'Location' %>
<%= f.text_field :location %>
</p>
<ul>
<% #payment_types.each do |type| %>
<li><%= check_box_tag 'project[payment_option_ids][]', type.id %>

<% end %>
</ul>

<%= f.fields_for :documents do |d| %>
<%= render 'document_fields', f: d %>
<% end %>
<div class="links">
<%= link_to_add_association 'add file', f, :documents %>
</div>
</p>
<P>
<%= f.submit 'Edit' %>
</P>
<% end %>

end
On the edit page the list of files fields show: "The file is not selected", but must be specified ​current files.
file_field is for uploading new files only, not for displaying what is already in the database. For displaying a list of uploaded files, you should just display the name of the file and/or an image tag with the thumbnail and provide a destroy link.
You can also provide a link to create a new attachment.
edit.html.erb
<div>
<ul>
<%= #project.documents.each do |document| %>
<li>
<%= document.attachment.name %>
<%= link_to "Delete", document_path(document), method: :delete, data: { confirm: 'Are you sure you want to delete this?' } %>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>

undefined local variable or method when rendering in show.html.erb

I'm trying to create a comment like system where the user can add a 'outcome' to a 'decision'.
Now i've rendered the form and the outcomes in the show.html.erb of 'decisions' but the outcomes give the following error: undefined local variable or method `outcomes' for #<#:0x007fc6046099e8>
My code:
controllers/outcomes_controller.rb
class OutcomesController < ApplicationController
def create
#decision = Decision.find(params[:decision_id])
#outcome = #decision.outcomes.create(params[:outcome].permit(:actual, :strength, :weakness))
redirect_to decision_path(#decision)
end
end
models/outcome.rb
class Outcome < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :decision
end
models/decision.rb
class Decision < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :outcomes
end
decisions/show.html.erb
<h1>Decision showpage</h1>
<h2><%= #decision.title %></h2>
<p><%= #decision.created_at %></p>
<p><%= #decision.forecast %></p>
<p><%= #decision.review_date %></p>
<%= render #decision.outcomes %>
<%= link_to "Delete Decision", decision_path(#decision), method: :delete, data: { confirm: "Are you sure?" } %>
<%= render "outcomes/form" %>
<%= render "outcomes/outcome" %>
outcomes/_form.html.erb
<%= form_for([#decision, #decision.outcomes.build]) do |f| %>
<%= f.label :actual %>:
<%= f.text_field :actual %> <br/>
<%= f.label :strength %>:
<%= f.text_area :strength %> <br/>
<%= f.label :weakness %>:
<%= f.text_area :weakness %> <br/>
<%= f.submit %>
<% end %>
outcomes/_outcome.html.erb
<%= outcomes.actual %>
<%= outcomes.strength %>
<%= outcomes.weakness %>
Can anyone help me by explaining why this error occurs and what i could do to make it work?
It sounds like you might need to pass your variables as arguments to your partial. When you try to call outcomes.actual, it doesn't know what outcomes is. You either need to pass it as a local variable:
<%= render "outcomes/outcome", locals: {outcomes: #decision.outcomes} %>
or simply get it from your #decision instance variable:
outcomes/_outcome.html.erb
<%= #decision.outcomes.actual %>.

Showing nested form text_field as text in index page

I'm totally new to Rails, so I'm sorry for the stupid question:
This is the code to generate my form and its nested form:
<%= form_for #job do |form| %>
<div><%= form.label :department %><%= form.text_field :department %></div>
<div><%= form.label :enabled %><%= form.check_box :enabled %></div>
<!-- job description form -->
<%= form.fields_for :job_descriptions do |subform| %>
<div><%= subform.hidden_field :language %></div>
<div><%= subform.object.language %></div>
<div><%= subform.label "Job Name" %><%= subform.text_field :title %></div>
<div><%= subform.label "Header" %><%= subform.text_field :short_text %></div>
<div><%= subform.label "Content" %><%= subform.text_area :text %></div>
<% end %>
<!-- end of job description form -->
<div><%= form.submit %></div>
<% end %>
While this is part of the index.html.erb where I want to display text_fields from my subform such as :title, :short_text and :text as static text (I'm trying with :title in this particular case):
<% #jobs.each do |job| %>
<li>
<%= job.title %>
<%= job.department %>
<%= job.enabled %>
<%= link_to 'Show', job_path(job) %>
<%= link_to 'Delete', job_path(job), method: :delete, data: { confirm: 'Are you sure?' } %>
</li>
<% end %>
The error I get is:
undefined method `title' for #<Job:0x007fcdde2001a8>
My job.rb file looks like this:
class Job < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :job_descriptions, :dependent => :destroy
accepts_nested_attributes_for :job_descriptions
def self.languages
[:de, :en]
end
end
Thank you very much in advance for any help.
<%= form_for #job do |form| %>
...
<%= form.fields_for :job_descriptions do |subform| %>
<% if subform.object.active? %>
<%= subform.text_field :title %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
...
<% end %>
