I am creating an evaluation form where a user will submit form after form by using kaminari pagination. The way I have it set up right now though is that the user will answer the questions, submit the form with an f.submit button, then once the profile updates, the user will have to manually select 'Next User' using the paginate button below the f.submit button. I would love for it to both submit the form and send the user to the next evaluation in line under one button action, not two. I have been playing around with trying to incorporate the paginate code into my f.submit button, but it keeps throwing errors. I was wondering if there was an easy way to go about this, thanks in advance!
<h2>Team Member Evaluation</h2>
<br> </br>
<% #users.each do |user| %>
<h4> <%= user.name %> </h4>
<%= form_for(user) do |f| %>
<% begin %>
<h8> Hunger for Wisdom </h8>
<div class="form-inline">
<div class="form-group">
<%= f.radio_button :current_one, 1 %>
<h7> 1 </h7>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<%= f.radio_button :current_one, 2 %>
<h7> 2 </h7>
</div>
<% end %>
<div class="col-md-3 col-md-offset-4">
<%= f.submit "Submit Score", class: "btn btn-default" %>
<% rescue ActionController::RedirectBackError %>
</div>
</div>
<% end %>
<%= paginate #users %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
Right now it is set up to whenever the user submits the form, the rescue action will direct the user back to a refreshed page of the evaulation form they just submitted, and then they must click next where the <% paginate #users %> is to go to the next form. I would like once the f.submit button is pressed to update and then immediately take the user to the next form.
In the controller action for the submit you could just increment the page count like this:
#users = User.page params[:page].to_i + 1
This is assuming you aren't using any other scopes to get the #users collection. The kaminari github repo has more information on available methods here.
If it is on the first page then the page query var is probably nil so you would have to account for this and send it to page 2 in this special case.

Rails each do method is acting strangely and I do not know why.
controller
def index
#fabric_guides = FabricGuide.with_attached_image.all.order(:name)
end
index.html.erb
<div class="guide-items">
<%= #fabric_guides.each do |fabric| %>
<div class="guide-container">
<%= link_to fabric_guide_path(slug: fabric.slug) do %>
<%= image_tag fabric.image if fabric.image.attached? %>
<% end %>
<div class="guide-info">
<p class="g-name">
<%= link_to fabric.name,
fabric_guide_path(slug: fabric.slug) %>
</p>
</div>
</div>
<% end %>
</div>
I have two FabricGuide records so I expect two "guide-container" but I get three. Or more precisely I get two guide containers and a third block of text containing all the content from the last FabricGuide record.
I have almost an identical setup for articles and have never encountered this problem. I'd happily share more information if needed. Thank you!
Please remove = equal sign from your each loop of view code
like below :-
<% #fabric_guides.each do |fabric| %>
...
...
<% end %>
you have used this <%= #fabric_guides.each do |fabric| %> in your view that's why it shows all record in DOM.
The expression for erb tags is <% %>
now if we want to print that tag too then we apply <%= %>
I've been working on a social site using the Rails framework. I just finished setting up a form and was able to submit a couple subposts. It worked for a bit, but now when I submit a subpost using forms_for(#subpost), it attempts to submit a completely different form on a separate view. No clue why it would call a separate form that hasn't even been rendered but hoping someone can help.
SubPost Controller
class SubPostsController < ApplicationController
def create
#subpost = SubPost.new(sub_post_params)
if #subpost.save
Form I want to submit
<%= form_for(#subpost) do |z| %>
<%= render 'shared/error_messages', object: z.object %>
<div class="field">
<!--<input type="text" name="sub_post[user_id]" value="<%# current_user %>" style="display:none;"/>-->
<input type="text" name="sub_post[micropost_id]" value="<%= micropost_id %>" style="display:none;"/>
<%= z.text_area :content, placeholder: "What's on your mind?" %>
</div>
<%= z.submit "Post", class: "btn btn-large btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
Updated to answer question
So basically I have my users personal page which displays their feed displaying a form under each post to submit a subpost. On the actual show page, there is no partial or render for post form, but that is what gets called each time I submit to the subpost form. The controller for the users page has two variables that I use to render the posts and subposts, #post = #user.posts.build and #subpost = #post.sub_posts.build
You can do something like this:
#some_controller.rb
def some_method
#posts = Post.all
SubPost.new
end
In your form you can use url option to take form parameters to create action. Assuming your routes are nested you can do something like this:
<% #posts.each do |post| %>
<%= form_for :subpost, url: some_path(#user, post) do |z| %>
// you need to replace some_path(#user,post) by your path helper
<%= render 'shared/error_messages', object: z.object %>
<div class="field">
<%= z.hidden_field :post_id, value: post.id %>
<%= z.text_area :content, placeholder: "What's on your mind?" %>
</div>
<%= z.submit "Post", class: "btn btn-large btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
Have a show action on a ticket that pulls in a list of comments on the ticket. My goal is to display the list of ticket comments and then above it give the option for someone to add a comments.
This works when the form is below the list of comments, however when i put the above the comments, i get an error in the render of the comments saying that the record has no user id. Almost like the #comments in my ticket controller is somehow getting this new thing added from the form even though it is instantiated before the render of the form.
Here are my partials and controller. The error when the form is displayed first is "unable to find user_id = 0" That is due to the comments.commenter, which looks for the name of the person submitting the comment.
Ticket Controller
def show
#ticket = Ticket.find(params[:id])
#comments = #ticket.comments
end
tickets/show - The form is in here twice, but i only put it in once when trying to get this to work. I want it to work in the top spot.
<div class="widget-content nopadding">
<ul class="new-comment">
<%= render "comments/form" %> --- Does not work here
</ul>
<ul class="recent-comments">
<%= render #comments %>
</ul>
</div>
<%= render "comments/form" %> --- Works here,
comments/form
<%= form_for([#ticket, #ticket.comments.build]) do |f| %>
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :content %><br>
<%= f.text_area :content %>
</div>
<div class="actions">
<%= f.submit %>
</div>
<% end %>
comments/comment
<li>
<div class="comments">
<span class="user-info"> User: <%= comment.commenter %> </span>
<p>
<strong>Comment:</strong>
PUBLIC: <%= comment.try(:content) %>
</p>
</div>
</li>
Do you have a default set on the comment user_id to 0? What's happening is the form is building a new comment on the ticket. So i think that is getting rendered in the collection partial in addition to what the ticket already had. With the user_id set to zero, the comment.commenter tries to do the where id = 0, and it blows up.
So if you do have a default on that column, remove it. Foreign keys should default to nil.
The #comments is likely lazy loaded, that's why the _comment partial can be effected. #comments was not invoked until you have the second render. To avoid this, you can switch the #comments in the controller to:
#comments = Comment.where(ticket_id: params[:id])
Hope this made sense. Let me know if the default is the case. It's just a hunch :)
So I'm trying to make it so that my submit button disables if you've already submitted the form.
I store your current_user.id when you submit. If you try again you should be met with a submit button that is disabled.
I've been trying to write this with if else statements but it just gets clumsy and doesn't work.
This is what I've tried:
<% if #f.current_user.id.present? %>
<%= f.submit "Submit" %>
<% else %>
<p>Disable code here</p>
<% end %>
EDIT: Taking into account the additional info given in the comments the answer is totally rewritten.
First, in the controller you need to check if current_user has posted before:
# In controller action
#user_already_submitted = Answer.where(user_id: current_user.id,
application_id: #answer.application_id).count > 0
And then in the view:
<%= form_for #answer do |f| %>
<!-- rest of the form -->
<%= f.submit "Submit", :disabled => #user_already_submitted %>
<% end %>
Everything is posting correctly, but I do not see any labels in my checkboxes, just blanks. My form looks like this:
<%= form_for #itemrecord do |f| %>
<div class="col-xs-12">
<p><b>Items people are asking for</b></p>
</div>
<% #wishlist.each do |category, list| %>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<div class="form-group box">
<h5> <%="#{category}"%> </h5>
<% list.each do |thing| %>
<%= check_box_tag ":item_name[]", "#{thing}" %>
</br>
<% end %>
</div>
</div>
<% end %>
<%= f.submit "Go!", class: "btn btn-primary btn-large btn-block" %>
</div>
<% end %>
What's happening is that wishlist is a hash of categories and items within those categories that I set in the controller, and is then called by multiple form builders to build checkboxes. The challenge is that right now in the current implementation, the checkboxes params are passed through properly (FYI controller code is at the bottom), but beside each checkbox, there is no text that shows the thing (i.e., no label so that people know what they're checking.
Here's the html generated for one checkbox (it's the same for all checkboxes)
Basically, I need to make the value the label.
FYI what's happening is that for every item checked, a record is being created. Here's the controller code:
def create
items_to_be_saved = []
inventory_params.each do |i|
items_to_be_saved << ({ :signup_id => Signup.find_by_email(session[:signup_email]).id, :item_name => i })
end
if Inventory.create items_to_be_saved
flash[:success] = "Thanks!"
redirect_to root_path
else
render new_inventory_path
end
end
def inventory_params
params.require(":item_name")
end
In your code:
<%= check_box_tag ":item_name[]", "#{thing}" %>
Second parameter for check_box_tag is not a label value, it is just a value which goes to controller in parameters. If you wan't to display label within your checkbox you will need to call label_tag in your view:
= label_tag ':item_name[]', thing
= check_box_tag ':item_name[]'
But you definitely should check simple_form gem which allows you to render checkboxes in much cleaner way:
f.input :field, as: :boolean, inline_label: 'Label'
can you please try it and let me know
<%= check_box_tag 'item_name[]', thing %>
